Shut the car off. went back to start it and the key goes in fine dinger comes on but wont turn. Tried a different key same thing. I took cover off the shifter, unhooked shifting cable and manually put in nuetral. same thing key won;t turn.

sometimes you can get the cyl to turn by spraying wd40 in it and working the key in and out to get the pins moving
