Re: 2001 GA SE ingition wont turn
It sounds like the lock mechanism has failed, if the wheel is turning freely and the key will not rotate then there is a problem that is most likely going to involve either having the lock cylinder or the steering wheel removed to get to the pin that locks the wheel and ignition. Sorry I can't be of any more help. Maybe someone else will have some suggestions for you. Good Luck
