Title: Key won't turn.
Post by: BaronYoungman on May 20, 2008, 07:36:27

The key which worked fine before won't turn.  I pulled it into the shop OK but when went to move it into the spray booth the key fits in but wont turn to unlock the wheels.  I know it has something to do with the steering lock....but what do I do?  Don't want to break the key in the lock!

Jiggle the steering wheel, if the tire is against a curb or whatever causing the steering shaft to hold pressure against the locking pin, the key will not turn.
