How do i make the igniton key turn when it is stuck
Since this is an older vehicle may I assume that the key is worn? Compare the key to other keys you have; what started out as sharp points on the key would look rounded now. Use a spare key. If the spare key does not have a chip/transponder then hold the body of worn key next to the steering column while you try the spare key. Sorry if I am off track but that seems to me the most likely situation and it might help you or someone else reading this. If you have the actual, original GM key with a serial number on it the dealer might be able to make you a fresh key.
Why won't our 1999 chevy suburban start?
If the clicking came from under the hood it might be a bad starter but if the clicking came from under the dash might be a relay. I have heard that a jump start can cause a bad starter to turn over. The next time it this happens find the starter and hit it with a hammer (strike the solenoid it's the soda can looking cylinder bolted to the starter, don't hit the bolts holding down the wires this will cause a major spark.) and if it starts it's definitely a bad starter. Let me know if this helps
How to replace ignition switch in a 1991 olds custom cursier
These cars have a resistor embedded into the metal shaft of the key and most of the GM line have issues with the module that reads the resistor in the switch, they stop reading the key from ware and tear. Are u sure the ignition switch is to blame for the starter not engaging
No spark at the plugs when starting
Place ur key in the switch (don't turn the key) and try starting it with the remote. If it starts it's because u haven't bypassed the security module on the ignition switch known as CAN BUS 2 I believe. If u have the same issue try turning the key to the first position known as ACC and try it again. If it still doesn't start give it another turn to the RUN position or also known as ignition. If it still doesn't turn on you will have to check ur wiring. Hope this helps.

no do not remove the end. take your old one to the parts store and let them compare it to other models. someone might have replaced the ignition with a different model.
