my friend,
Does the engine spin when you turn the key? Does your key have a little black bubble with a thin wire running through the middle?

No, not if it is not defective. If the ignition switch is defective then that is all you need to replace.

I got a friend whose key can't turn the ignition on her 2000 Pontiac Grand Am. She can't get the steering wheel to unlock either.
The ignition switch is immediately behind and attached to the ignition lock cylinder. The ignition lock cylinder is where you place the key to start your vehicle. If you are haveing problems with your vehicle not starting and or turning the key, more than likely you need to replace the ignition lock cylinder. It is common for these to go bad in GM vehicles.
