My Caravan's starter works intermittently. Sometimes when the key is
turned nothing happens at all. I move the shifter in and out of Park to
see if the button is not depressed which allows the starter to work but
that does nothing whatsoever. Later, sometimes within seconds,
sometimes within many long minutes, the starter cranks and the engine
starts. If the starter cranks it does NOT stop cranking until I release
the key. I mentioned that part because if the starter was the problem I
would think it may die once in a while cranking.

I have not found a problem, and don't feel like replacing the starter
unless that is the problem. Does anyone have a clue what may be causing
this problem?
