The ignition switch should be separate from the ignition key/lock assembly, so I'll say no.

Would a worn ignition key cause the theft system to go to passlock mode so the vehicle won't start this vehicle is a 97 olds?
The thing that causes the PASSLOCK to activate is the chip, if you will. If the chip is bad, ar is unrecognizable to the system, the PASSLOCK will activate. Take it to a dealer asap. You can bypass the passlock by accessing the ignition, and cutting the yellow wire of a small 3 piece wire set that's on top of the ignition. cut the yellow small wire from ign. switch in the column up by the switch. this is the passlock wire.

How do you determine if your ignition switch needs replaced on your vehicle your fuel pump relay AC relay and check engine light won't come on The car won't start no power in relay wires.?
Along with the ignition switch, there's a neutral safety switch that could be bad, VATS key chip relay if you have this, and possibly fusible links near the battery. Other than that, it COULD be the starter relay. The wire from the ignition should be either purple or red at the solenoid. If there is a small black wire at the solenoid, it should come right from the battery. The VATS can definitely open this, better if you don't have the chip key when this happens. Find the procedure to wire around it, at least temporarily until you verify it is not the problem. Good luck.
Why is your key switch not turning on your 2000 Focus?
NEED MORE INFO. Have you tried relieving the pressure on the ignition switch by turning the steering wheel slightly to relieve the pressure against the lock mechanism? Did it used to work but doesn't work now? Are you using the same key as before? If using a different key, is this one equipped with the security chip (located in the fat plastic part of the key)? If not, the car's security system is working and has disabled the ignition just like it's supposed to.

Not a switch, but you could have a problem with the Sentry Key System. The key has a chip in it that communicates with a receiver near the ignition switch. You will have to go to a dealer for service.
The ignition switch will not turn at all What do you do?
Are you using an original key, or a replacement that has the proper security computer chip located in the fat plastic part of the key? If not, the car's security system will keep the ignition locked and will not allow you to turn the ignition switch. ALSO: some earlier models of Focus had ignition switches that were a problem. If you ARE using the correct key and can't turn the switch to start the car anymore, the ignition switch may have to be replaced.

How do you a hot wire 2001 Ford Windstar van without the key?
Unless you have the frequencies of the chip inside the key or very tech savvy knowledge of how to trick the computer that runs the ignition into thinking it has the correct key chip inserted, you don't. Extra chip keys are about $150.00 a piece... IF you have the original key. I don't know what the price is to re-key a Windstar ignition switch that requires a chip to start, but it isn't going to be in the neighborhood of 'cheap'.

Why would a 2000 Sebring Convertible repeatedly shut down a few seconds after starting a few times and then not start at all even though it has power?
There is an electronic chip in 2000 Chrysler Sebring Convertible ignition keys. The chip is located in the top section of the key, within the black polymer thumb casing. This chip must be programmed to each particular automobile. Every key has two requirements. 1.) The key must be cut properly allowing the key to turn the ignition switch. 2.) The key must have a functioning, properly programmed chip. A physical key may be cut properly allowing the key to turn the ignition switch and to start the car. But if the key's chip is not programmed properly, or has failed, when the car's computer system checks the key's chip the car will shut down.
