Vz SS Steering Locked up

[rum_piggg]

Hey, Have a VZ ss with steering lock up problem, Steering wheel was knocked and it locked up, Normally just put the key in and rattle wheel and it unlocks, But cannot even turn key regardless of all the effort put in. Anyone had the same or similar problem that could make any suggestions?

Sounds like you need a new ignition.

Ign barrel is jammed. While turning the key with one hand, tap the end of the key with the handle of a screwdriver or small hammer till it turns.

This will get you going till you get a new barrel which is the only real option.

Keep turning it and the car will start eventually. It took me an hour and a half to start my car before I replaced my barrel

An hour and a half, wow you had alot of patience to wait that long.

Nah I was seriously cracking the shits though. I just really needed it to start.
