Hi, have tried three keys and every combinations of jiggling, bumping key, rocking steering wheel,etc you name it-nothing is working! what has been engineered into these things that interface or interlock and what can be done to get this lock cyl.out if it can't be turned to the run position??? Thanks in advance. 2006 Durango

 

The neutral park switch may be defective. Try to disconnect the negative battery terminal for a few minutes and see if this resets the system,

FF, if it is the neutral/park switch were is it and what involvement would it have with the ign.lock cyl.? Is there something I'm missing?

 

Is the key stuck in the ignition?
FF

 

FF, no it is not. I'm starting to believe that the steering wheel lock mechanism is stuck.

 

I forgot to tell you earlier,reconnecting the battery didn't change any thing. I now have the column on the bench. where to go now heh!

 

Might have to rebuild the ignition or a locksmith may be able to help:
