Key turn won't start!!!!!

Hey guys and girls.

I just had to fix some random things for my turn signal lever. I took out my lock and tumbler or ignition. I put everything together but now my key only turns my power on and then stops. I can't turn it any farther to actually crank the engine. By that I mean when you turn usually the engine cranks and then the key kind of snaps back to the on position. Mine will not twist farther to actually hit that point. I have no idea what went wrong any body have some good pictures or complete guide on this.

It will be greatly appreciated...

Thanks again

Re: Key turn won't start!!!!!

Appears you only removed the key cylinder, although it's not real clear. Did you adjust the rod that connects the key cylinder to the ignition switch?

Shoebox has good info in this "how to":
