I don't have (and never did) an ignition assembly apart in my hand, but if the screwdriver blade works then some sort of interface must either be missing, or not being inserted deep enough to interlock. Or, am I just burning out my light bulb again?

I asked this question in post #34 and got no reply, today I started to expand on it but gave up. It is simple, either the connection is damaged or the lock does not turn the same number of degrees as the switch can. This should be quite obvious but the feedback is somewhat lacking.
