More than likely not an ignition issue. Sounds like there is an issue with the 12v source to the fuse box. At the top of the fusebox (closest to the firewall) is where the source is. A cable from the battery bolts into the fuse box. Itll be under a red cap. Check that connection and make sure its not corroded, broken or the bolt isnt loose.
