Default Crap ignition/switch/tumbler problems

Ok so I get in my car to go to work today and I turned it over and it died instantly, I noticed that nothing was lit up in the cluster. I jacked around with the key and if I hold it in the start position it will stay on like normal, but as soon as it comes back to where it is suposed to be it dies.

How can I troubleshoot what this is?
