Maybe you can just remove the kick panel to gain access to the connector. Then, using a paper clip or short piece of wire, jumper the contacts. If you can start it then it's the switch. If not then there's no need to mess with it. The problem lies elsewhere.
T_T Pretty positive its the switch. Gonna give the isopropyl alcohol spray a try, see if I can just clean the switch. If not, its going to the dealer.

I now keep my keys in a different pocket and I haven't had this issue since.
My key is always in my right pocket with just my wallet, cellphone is either in left pocket or on its car mount (to the left of steering wheel). I've also watch valets have issues with starting my car, so I'm also positive its the switch.

I have seen some valets open and close my door though, thinking thats the issue. But I don't think so? :|
