Sounds to me like you have a broken linkage from your ignition tumbler to your ignition switch. It is a plastic "arm" that pushs.pulls a metal tab on your ignition switch.

If you are turning the key to accessories and the starter spins then, your ignition switch (electrical) is faulty.

There is nothing wrong with the lock,,,it is suppose 2 spin around if you do not put the key in correctly.

My 1997 bmw does the same , it is a security measure incase someone breaks into the car and tries 2 steal it by putting a screwdriver in the ignition ,,it just spins.

before putting yr key in the ignition, move yr steering wheel slighty so its not resting on the steering lock , put yr key in and turn , it does not spin

You have either a worn key or a work ignition barrel.You need to try a new key first and if the fault persists, replace the ignition key barrel

You Need a New Lock Cylinder.

A ignition is in two parts, where you put the key to turn it and a second part that is the ignition itself. Between the two parts there is a small flat pin or bar. This is where your problem is, the pin/bar is broken. You will have to replace the ignition to solve the problem.

the ignition switch is bad if the silver part spins all the way around. you will need to replace it.

The problem is either in the mechanism that pushes the rod that activates the ignition switch from the key lock cylinder, or the ignition switch is defective.
