Sometimes if your keys metal ball aireal thing nxt to base of key is touching the metal connector on your ignition i find with my 01 vx when u go to 0ut key in just press it in so its firmly pressed against the ignition barrel and then turn over see if that helps ( i could be wrong tho ) just personal experience of when mine does this lol

The Ring around t he Key Switch is called the "Slip Ring",
and some time if that does not make contact, it could cause that issue,
but on a side note, get the Car Scanned, and check the history of the BCM,
As it will say in the memory any historical codes/issue's, and that will not activate the MIL.
