Re: 2001 Alero Key won't turn from the off position

To start the Alero does not have a steering wheel lock associated with the ignition switch. So the steering does not lock.

The most likely possibility would be the ignition switch assembly and key release. However, there is a BTSI system where the key cannot be removed until it is in PARK. There is a BTSI solenoid or PARK switch in the shifter that sends a signal to the key release system.
