Ignition switch!!!

ok well i have a feeling my Ignition switch is going out... the symptom im getting this time is when turning the car on then off the key wont go all the way back to unlock the key from comming out, it gets stuck....
So is that the problem or is my Cylinder going out?

Re: Ignition switch!!!

the problem is the adjustment of your park-lock cable http://shbox.com/trans/park_lock.html.

Unlock the clamp and pull the cable backwards (towards the back of the car) and then relock it. Then try rotating between on, run, crank, off etc. and see if there is any resistance.

This cable will not let you take out the key while you are in gear but if its adjusted incorrectly, it can be hard to take the key out when you are in park, or even to start the car.
