Power windows inop
Have a few things finished on the truck now, but running into really strange issues. Power windows. Key on engine off windows work just fine. Key on engine running windows do not work. Really stumped on this one since I know the electrical systems are not that complex lol

After starting it have you tried turning the key back toward you without shutting the engine off?

My ignition is a little goofy. Which is part of my next list of repairs. But the key does return to the same position. I will try moving the key around differerently and see if anything changes. Any other ideas?

No other ideas here other than replacing the ignition switch.
