Have a '93 Caravan - went to put the key in to start is and nothing. No lights, no sounds, nothing.
Checked battery terminals and cleaned them - put key back in and nothing. Waited about two minutes, put the key back in and it came right to life and fired up? Battery/alternator guage shows it's in the 'normal' range - haven't noticed anything unusual or had any work done recently to account for this.

Any ideas or help would be welcome. Thanks

 

I would say a bad ignition switch

 

Thanks !
