If your key won’t turn when you put it in the ignition, sometimes when the
front wheels are not pointed straight ahead, try to rock the steering wheel
left and right while trying to turn the key that will usually allow you to turn the
key and start the engine. The switch is not where the key is inserted, the
switch is in the lower part of the steering column, there is a rod that goes
from the key point down to the slide switch in the column, it’s around 18
inches long and connects the two devices together, sometimes if there is
stress on the switch because of the position of the front wheels it causes it
to bind. R.
