do not start about 15 minutes...please help 850 1995

i have a problem with my car, but it does not give me the problem all the time. the problem is a car does not start only once a while. it usually occures when i try to start engine after i park my car for a minutes or so. but, if i wait about 15 minutes, i will start back again. and runs no problem. only thing that i notice is that it is hard to turn off the key. it feels like the key got stuck on the ON position. but it will turn to stop engine.
I have heard that it may be transmissions' positioning sensor or something, the computer inside of transmission to recognize the transmission is in PARKING, so i can start engine. when the symptom occures, it is always in the parking, but maybe, it does not recognize the position of transmission.
when the engine does not start, the lights on the dash is bright, and it does not crank or anything, it does not do anything.
please tell me what do you think??
