Default 96 lx doesnt start when hot(not the relay)

like it says.no cranking or anything.if i drive it,then turn it off,then try to restart.......nothing.if i wait an hour or two.it fires right up.
this isnt a relay problem.so please dont respond with that.this is a ignition switch or starter problem.just wondering if this has happend to anyone else.thanks.

maybe the starter is getting too hot and dont turn over when its that hot. you should pull your starter of and take it to be tested at autosone since you have rulled or relays

If you want to point your fingers at the Ignition or Starter, I'd start with check the ignition switch. I'd probably just turn the key to start and wiggle it around and see if it starts. Sometimes if the Ignition Switch is going bad it'll work.

Good Luck.
