radio & blower ON/OFF intermittenly..... 200 1989

my radio and blower, both sometimes will ON and OFF by itself intermittenly... sometimes i need to switch off the key, and put it back to II(start) position again in order for the radio & blower to turn ON again... my guess is the relay... but don't know which relay... any suggestion?? 240 '89 B230K tq

Worn out ignition switch. Next time it fails, wiggle the key and see if it comes back to life.

I agree with Kane.

And I'd add that if you have a heavy key chain, it might be a good idea to see if you can lighten it up. A real heavy key chain will shorten the life of the ignition switches.
