Nedd some help diagnosing a new problem!!!

[01blkgt]

So I have a 06' EB Expedition and on the way to go grocery shopping the truck started acting pretty weird. We were driving down the neighborhood when it seemed like the starter just started to kick on by itself while we were in drive and moving at around 30mph. It made some whicked metal on metal sound and I immediately pulled off to the side and shut her off. When I went to start it again, it immediately fired up when put on the "on" or "ACC" position without having to move it that extra 1/4" like normal. Continued to do this as we turned around, but I'm not quite sure if it is a starter/solenoid or ignition switch type problem. Anyone have any insight?

that really sounds like the ignition switch but who knows on these computer controlled trucks.... it could even be a wire in the harness crossing to another.....

That's what I assume, but not 100% sure. Is there anyplace online that has tghe breakdown on replacing said switch?

do you have the factory warranty still?

 

[01blkgt]

Nope, she has 52k miles on it and am well passed the warranty period. Anyone know where the ignition module is?

My 99 has it under the steering column behind the kick panel.
