Car 'locks up' at start up S90-V90 1998

Next time it happens, see if you can just one way or the other to get things to work without turning the key completely on/off.

I had a slightly similar problem with our 98 S90. I started the car but all the gauges were dead and the trans would not shift up out of 1st gear (reverse was fine). I did not try the door locks, windows or seats. Turned the car off, restart and all was fine. Turned out to be the ignition switch.
