=== Look under the steering column and see if there is a little rectangular shaped piece. If so, pop the piece out by inserting something into the small space provided. Feel inside this compartment--you should feel and see a black piece that you can push downward if you place your finger inside. While pushing this downward, try removing the keys at the same time even turning the cylinder lock as it should turn. Release when the keys come out. Now you can leave it this way if the car will run and that is the only way the keys will come out!!

How do you replace the ignition switch in a 1987 grand marquis with broken tumbles?
found this, might be the same, Merry Christmas, anyways! :) For a 1988 Mercury Marquis remove bottom shroud from steering column (5 Philips head screws). There is a wire running from the ignition switch to the left side of the steering column; detach it from the coupler (This can be done without a tool). Turn key to ON position until the panel lights come on. There is a small pin near the bottom of the key lock; push it in and pull the ignition switch out (don't panic if the wire seems to be stuck; it will come out). To replace, turn new ignition switch to same position. Push pin on the ignition switch in while sliding it back into the steering column. Reconnect wire and then replace shroud.
How do you remove the ignition switch in a 1990 Pontiac Grand Am?
The knob you pull out is attached to the switch. To get the switch out, you will have to remove the panel underneath the dash, and some of the HVAC ductwork that runs underneath. Disconnect the battery. On the back of the switch, under the dash, there will be a little button you will have to push in to get the switch's shaft & knob to release from the switch. After that is done, you will be able to pull off the trim going around the face of the dash. It should just snap on. Then there will be a nut holding the switch to the dash. Remove the nut, the switch will come out the back, and then you can unplug it. Replace in reverse of these directions, only leave the swith shaft/knob for last. It will just push back into the new switch.

On the steering column. Its what you put your key in. No that's not the switch That's the cylinder. The switch is in top of the steering column, down by the floorboard. Remove the knee bolster and the cross-member behind the trim panel. Loosen and remove the two nuts (or are they bolts? I forget.) on either side of the steering column that attach it to the dash. Lower the column and you should be able to see the switch. Oh, shoot, I forgot: DISCONNECT THE NEGATIVE CABLE FROM THE BATTERY.
