HI. The start switch is the culprit in this situation. you must replace the switch asap. The replacement of the switch will correct this issue. The switch circuit is weak, and not able to maintain a closed circuit.

- This is a fairly moderate repair procedure, and if you have the right tools and technical savvy, this can be attempted by a novice tech. I do not recommend a do it yourself if you are not at least a novice tech.
