You can gently try rocking the steering wheel back and forth just slightly while trying to turn the key. If you get it to turn on don't turn it off until you get it parked at home. Search the forum, there is a fix that cost almost nothing but time with pics and instructions.

Actually what's funny is a wannabe that thinks you can push start a crossfire with a locked up ignition. You think they would teach you better at your Car Wash job.

The thing I can't understand is why someone would go out of their way to MAKE enemies.
This forum is intended, IMHO, to promote friendship and camaraderie around the one thing we should all love, the Crossfire.
Sharing experiences, improving our cars and fixing what's broke is what it's all about.

So, xxx_fire, add me to your old-fart list along with onehundred80, I'm proud to be a member.
