Ignition will not recognize key S70 2000

I have a 2000 S70, manual transmission. On occasion the ignition will not recognize the "chip" in the keys. I have been able to fool the ignition switch by changing keys. However, it is getting to the point that this happens to frequently.

I know there is a "fix", but I do not know where the magnet, or key reader is
in the ignition and steering column.

Can anyone help with the part that must be either replaced or cleaned in order to keep this from reoccuring?

Thanx in advance.
