I spent the last 30 mins tinkering with the key and steering wheel. Nothing. This had happened before but usually after a couple mins of jiggling the key it would turn. I read a thread in this forum about the ignition chamber not being lubricated so I found some lube - no not that kind. I found bicycle lube in the house - greased up both sides of the key and voila. I’m sure lube lube would work as well. It’s worth a try.
