Zelly,

The mechanical portion of the ignition switch is known to fail, which means it either will not move much or spins 360 degrees around. Sounds like you're a candidate for a new cylinder, but before you go to that, try using some lock lubricant on it. Other members have reported some luck with this approach, but it will not eliminate the need to have the cylinder replaced.

Good luck!
