The Ford Barn

This problem has occurred now twice in the past month: the starter seems to get stuck in the "on" position after pressing the floor button to start the engine.

The first time I was somehow able to wiggle it free, but last night I had to shut off the emergency switch on my fuse to stop the starter. Even then, the engine tried to start after turning the switch back on -- several times. Trying to manually pull up the floor button was not the right solution -- it did not budge.

Any suggestions about the cause and cure for this situation?

Many thanks in advance!
