Default Sometimes Car Wont Start

Everyonce In A While I Turn The Key And Lights And Dash "reset Or Go Dead" As Normalthen but starter doesnt do anything. Turn The Key Off And Try Again And Then She Will Start. Any Body Have Ideas. I Dont Think Its The Starter. Could Be The Ign Switch I Guess. Is There A Relay Or Anything For Just The Starter?

Most likely bad ground or connection with the starter/battery.
