2004 - key wont turn
2004 - key wont turn
my key isnt turning in the ignition. Main key goes in no problem, but wont turn at all. I tried spare key, it went in tightly, turned the engine on, and so I tried my main key again. Now the spare wont work! Anyone have an idea? Could something be blocking the key from going in all the way or blocking it from turning? Help please!

Re: 2004 - key wont turn
hm. weird.. wonder if you got some debris in the cylinder causing your key not to engage correctly
Re: 2004 - key wont turn
Theres a module connected to the cylinder opposite the key. I took that off, and i can turn it to start my car, but the key still doesnt turn. I would drive it, but the damn steering wheel lock! Is there a way to disengage the lock?
Re: 2004 - key wont turn
You could try spaying some WD-40 into the ignition tumbler( the place were the key goes into) and wiggle it a bit, but your going to have to replace the tumbler. The steering wheel lock pin can't be removed, but you could forcefully turn the wheel and brake it. Not my fault if It f@#ks up your car though.
