Ignition switch???

I've noticed that lately i have to "fiddle" with my key in the
ignition to get it to go in the start or on position, it don't
want to turn good, thinking i had a worn out key i got a new
one made from my GM dealer but it didn't help. do i need to
replace my ignition is it wore out???? that's what i'm leaning
to..

1999 5.7

any thoughts????????

Re: Ignition switch???

One day my wife came in and said "the key wont turn in the Sub" Turns out the steering wheel was hard up against the key lock. After further instruction it hasn't happened again. Could this be your trouble?? If not, I don't have a clue other to suggest you go with what you feel is right.........Steve
