Radio and intermittent starting fault
Sorry in advance for the long winded explanation. When I turn the ignition key to the first position to work the radio only, the display flashes and the sound breaks up if it works at all. After turning the ignition fully on the radio display will either continue to flash and the sound breaks up or it will stop working completely with no sound or display.

On attempting to start most of the time it will start immediately although on the odd occasion the engine turns over but does not start. When this happens I try a few three or four second bursts but when it does eventually start it starts immediately.

Once the engine is running the radio works perfectly. The radio also works perfectly if I use the "hour on" option without using the ignition key.

The battery is fully charged and easily turns the engine over. Any suggestions?
