Default Ignition switch-Air Bag Light ???

(1) Wondered if anyone has experienced an ignition switch that will sometimes not turn the vehicle off...I will move the key to the off position and sometimes have to move a bit back from full off to kill the engine (there.
(2) Also have Air Bag light that is solid...have done nothing to the, that I'm aware of?? Wondering where to or what to check (I've done fuses..all good).
This is a car that I purched may not running...so these issues may have come along. The car has been converted, but these areas were not touched.
Thanks for any help.

(1) sounds like a worn switch or possibly a harness connector to switch problem.

(2) before you get the solid AirBag light, it will probably flash a number of times? If so, count the flashes and post the answer back here. These flashes (called flash or blink codes) help to identify the reason for the light being on.

The 'car has been converted'....? What has been done could be relevant.

The conn to harness looks to be correct...I'm proboly going to look for a new switch
There are no flashes on the airbag light just a steady light, that stays on after the initial igintion switch on light check.??

Thanks
