Ignition key not catching V50

That's an interesting system.

I'm just guessing, but if the first start attempt fails, then maybe it has to wait until the starter completely winds down to a stop before it will attempt again. That way it's not trying to engage a spinning starter sprocket, resulting in a "crunch". Like I say though, I'm just guessing.
