Ignition switch 200

This sounds more like a bad starter solenoid than a switch.
Try pulling the solenoid wire off the starter and see if 12V comes and goes with the turn of the key- that would point to the switch being OK, and the solenoid being at fault.
Replacing a starter is on my "NOT FUN" list but it can be done at home...
