Steering wheel locked key will not turn
I have a problem with starting my Crossfire. The key will turn a little then it hits a dead end. I wiggle the steering wheel and pull it in and out, which usually works, but it will not wiggle past to the start position. I have the lower dash disassembled. I tried to disassemble the ignition switch from the steering lock and cannot get it to separate, any ideas.
I pulled the park/interlock cable off and it seems to be a magnetic switch without mechanical parts. So it must be the ignition key or the steering locking subassembly, but I cannot figure which one.
I am a poet on a poetic budget and a dealer is thirty miles or more away, so I must try to start it rather than pay for a towing. I would like to fix it since a dealer would charge gold plated prices. I am stuck in Florida at Panama Beach writing my dreams with my sweetheart Crossfire licensed POETS.
