@oragex and @mrbrian200,

Thank you both so much! The help and humor is much appreciated!!! Your input encouraged me to try from fresh perspectives with more knowledge and it paid off.

Remember that I stated earlier I was originally unable to insert the key into the door lock or ignition switch ...

Hi,

Thanks for the feedback.

To clarify:

The symptom I was first experiencing with both door lock and ignition was that neither key would insert completely into either one.

I can now insert both keys into the door lock and into the ignition like butter!

Neither key can turn in the door lock ...

Salutations, All!

I've been scouring the web trying to find this precise symptom with no luck. I have spent hours looking and it is with reluctance that I now turn to the forums.

Thanks in advance for taking time out of your day to help.
