No accessories power

I think @Snoots has got it, when you turn the key to Start or run position it pulls on the switch (rod moves up towards driver), so accessories position pushed rod away from driver.

Easy to get confused laying upside down under the dash trying to think that through… DAMHIK

It's located near the bottom of the steering column.
There are 2 screws holding it there.
Loosen them (don't remove) and you can move the switch.
I'm guessing here but I'm thinking you'll have to move it towards the steering wheel.

Turn your radio on and turn your ignition to the ACC position.
When the radio comes on, You've found the spot. Tighten the screws and enjoy.

^^^^ Basically this

There may be a bit of a compromise on the best position for the ignition switch. When its perfect each key position should work accordingly and the key should snap back to "Run" after cranking. It may take some trial and error to get it perfect.

I'll add, do not attempt to bend or alter the ignition switch rod that comes from the lock cylinder.

These switches do wear out also, the contact points inside the switch may get dead spots in them.
