93 Wiring Diagram will help you isolate it and fine out what wires get voltage at a certain key position. Definitely sounds like a switch issue... Sounds like one of the circuits is contacting prematurely from wear.

You can determine which lead gets what by looking at the wiring diagrams....the internal wiring diagram of the switch for each position is on the first page for EVERY. SINGLE. SYSTEM. Cross reference a few of those diagrams to common connector X-03 and you've got the info you need to test the switch.

Well I figured out what's wrong.... Actually found out from a Acura forum. What happened is that I lowered my car and with the horrible roads of ky/tn it made a small heat cut I the inner fender lining. Behind that are wires which got exposed and connected. I'm happy it was just that and nothing worse. Thank you guys so much have a great day!
