Some things aren't quite clear -
If you let the radio play for about 10 minutes, engine off, when you go to start it, it won't start. When it doesn't start -
Does the starter turn, but just too slowly? Does it not turn, but you hear a click from the area? Do the dash lights go out when you go to start?
If you haven't played the radio, but just get into the car, it starts, yes? Does the start turn quickly, or does it turn slowly?
When you play the radio, are the dash lights on? Do you see the BAT and OIL lights, and the rest? If so, that's one problem. You don't need the key in that position to play the radio. Turn it to ON, then back one notch to the Accessory position. The dash lights will go off, but the radio/CD will stay on.
In the ON position,you're pulling a LOT of power. Daytime driving lights, fan blower, engine control, lots of stuff.
Understanding how it turns over (or not) when it starts and when it doesn't is important.
