Have you tried wiggling the steering column while turning the key? If that helps, you probably need to remove a portion of the plastic cover from your steering column to enable you to lube the column lock. That's the thing that keeps the steering from turning if the key is not turned on. If the column lock jams, it can prevent the key from turning.

Key is stuck in the ignition of 94' Chevy blazer in the on position the key turns on but wont turn off to take key out..HELP?
The gear mechanisms in the steering column may have busted.. also you can try to rotate the steering while,if this doesn't help do it with pair of pliers..got it?!no?!call a locksmith.... Locksmith reply: You can use the pliers to turn it back to the off position but the ignition will need to be replaced. It's pretty common on GM vehicles. Most the time it is just the lock itself that is causing the problem.

What do you do if Key doesn't turn in ignition?
If a key does not turn in the ignition, the solution could be to turn the steering wheel back and forth a few times. Sometimes the steering wheel is locked up causing the key to be stuck or to not crank the car. If this does not work, contact a mechanic to diagnose the issue. The car could be a model that has been recalled.
