So I parked my truck in the garage the other day and locked the steering wheel "for the first time since I owned the truck" and now I can not get it to unlock I put the key in and jiggle the wheel but it will not let me turn it. Does anyone know what I can do? I am about to just yank on the wheel as hard as possible to try an bust the lock lol but dont want to

 

Try turning the wheel harder. Both directions. Need to get the pressure off the lock "pin".

 

trust me I have. I even had my girlfriend try to turn the key as I pulled the wheel.

 

maybe jack up the front end to ease the pressure.

 

I mean it is a little older its a 95 I can try that I hope it works bc it sucks for sure not having my truck after tearing my roof of my house saturday and sunday well sucked today basically bc I didnt have my truck to toss the shingles into so had to do double the work tearing off and then picking up and caring to the dumpster

 

Maybe try wiggling the key. Might be the ignition cylinder is going bad.

You are using the correct key, right? <<Just making sure, because I've done it before.

 

I think I have tried every option possible wiggle the wheel and the key yanking on that mother effer as hard as possible.. just went out and lifted the front and no help there and yes the correct key is being used lol only other keys I have are to a toyota, suzuki, and an eagle ... I knew I should of not locked the wheel bc on all my other vehicles to lock the wheel you turn it off wiggle the wheel a little and boom locked my truck would never lock so I looked it up and said you had to turn the wheel 180 degrees so I just had to try it and screwed myself over..
