Default HELP! Wheel lock

Ok just right now when I got home I parked the car, turn off the car, and then try to turn it back on to move it, but the wheel got lock and can't turn it to the on position.... Is there anything wrong? I've try wiggling the steering wheel while turning the key but it won't turn to the on position, the key goes up and down when turning but will not turn all the way to the on position.... What's is wrong and is there a button i have to push to turn it on? I can't find any button anywhere near the ignition.... HELP!!!!!! AND THANK YOH FOR YOUR COMMENTS

Hold the steering wheel using constant/even pressure in direction where it feels springy. Then turn the key while you apply the constant pressure on the wheel. Do not shake or rock the streering wheel. Do so gently.

Your key could be worn out also. As well as the ignition lock cylinder.

Good Luck and if any one else want to chime in please do so.

Try your other key. There is no button like on some cars of the past. Key must be pushed in all the way.

You've got 2 threads going on the same topic. Close this one. In fact, close them both if you're not going to respond to peoples' suggestions.
