Best Answer

Assuming you have the right key, try wiggling it around a bit int he ignition. Also, try turning the steering wheel side to side as you try to turn the key. The issue is that the tumblers in your ignition switch are probably worn out. This happened in my '94. If you can't turn the key at all, the tumblers will have to be drilled out with a 1/2" bit and the tumbler set replaced.
