[FWDLK] Starting failure

["Marko Lonngren" <marlon@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

My '61 DeSoto has an occasional starting problem. Power comes on, but nothing
will happen, when I turn the key. Battery is OK. Just like as neutral safety
switch works, although the tranny is in Neutral. Starter relay doesn't close,
so I have to start the engine from the engine compartment using separate
jumper
wire passing the relay. The starter works normally after that, until this
problem
will appear next time either tomorrow or two weeks later. What I have to
check?
