Sometimes when I turn the key to start the car, all I get is a clicking sound. However, if I turn the steering wheel back and forth, the car starts just as it normally does. What could be causing this problem?

That's weird. There should be no relationship. Is your key on the column or the dash?

It is on the column.

Possibly a fraying or almost-broken passkey wire?
