Hans, why does your topic say key stuck in ignition in Detailing and Appearance? Please post in the proper section.

Is this a mechanical topic that you would like moved?

ok....now that i found this post.....

you see the cable that is on the left side of the shifter. There is an adjustment where it secures to the bracket, you can see it in the pic, and it has a spring behind it. You need to adjust that one so your shifter, and key will release

sorry for the delay in the posting Taters
