I have a kinda VERY big problem
i cant turn my car off! I fought with my keys for about 10 mins trying to turn it back to the lock position. No success so i pulled the ignition fuse and unhooked the battery. It got stuck last night, but i turned it forward (and made that loud noise) then turned it off. that didnt work this time. anyone know the deal?

Re: I have a kinda VERY big problem
Bum lock cylinder or actuating rod to the ignition switch could be binding up or bent.

Re: I have a kinda VERY big problem
btw that "loud" noise that happens when you turn the key is your starter motor grinding its teeth against the flywheel teeth....very bad.....dont do that....

Re: I have a kinda VERY big problem
man that airbag stuff is no joke. Anytime we have to go underneath the dash on an airbagged car we have to wear ear protection. I have a set that looks like the guys at airports wear lol. But if it goes off while your under there, you WILL lose your hearing because it causes a negative pressure under there. Crazy stuff.
