Ignition problems AGAIN
 
I had my ignition replaced about two weeks ago because it would not click back upon starting. Now it acts like it is the tumbler or something like that, has any one had this problem? where you have to fiddle with the key and the steering wheel for awhile in order to get it to turn. There are times when it feels like the key is going to break, what part do I need? if I have already replaced the igition?

Thanks,
Automon:mad:

Have you tried to turn the wheel against the wheel lock, if you turn the wheel to the right it will take tension off of the key as you release the lock and turn the key.

That's a normal thing when your steering wheel locks. I've had this happen with all the cars I owned.

Okay, sorry but I have to start simply. How is that different from your problem.

Does turning the wheel help...

Turning the wheel will help some times but not all the time, I have to mess with it just about every time. When I took the car in they said that they did not think that it was my ignition, but since I brought the parts with me and they installed them.
