My 97x will not crank most of the time and the dash light with the car and lock icon is lit. It will start randomly when I don't expect it to start!🤷
The key fits in the ignition loosely but it has been that way for the 2 years I've owned it so I don't know if it's normal. My guess is bad ignition switch but any guidance would be appreciated. Also, when it doesn't crank the compressor doesn't come on when the key is in position. Thanks in advance

I think I found the issue. The responder in the fob was out of it's place.

Yes, this is a problem I have had and another member also had. It happens sometimes when the battery is replaced and that capsule decides to escape.
