If you physically can not turn the key in the ignition it is likely due to the steering column interlock. This is a feature designed to prevent vehicle theft by preventing a thief from being able to steer the car even if the ignition is “hot-wired”. This can happen from either a worn or improperly made key (like a duplicate key). More common is that you can get around this by simply moving the steering wheel back a forth a little bit while trying to turn the key. If this works, the problem is just the friction in the steering column interlock due to a little bit of load on the steering wheel. It should not take much pressure on the steering wheel to allow you to turn the key.
I found some video of the steering lock problem but this wasn’t the fix for my particular problem.
I fixed it by lubricating the lock with liquid graphite. Now my keys turn every single time without missing a heartbeat.
Mr Roth, is there a way I can reach you by email? I’d love to discuss with you a project that I’m working on and is in dire need of your help.
