HomeWhy 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.

If the key is stuck IN the switch, you are in luck. Remove the plastic cover around the switch. Rotate the key counter-clockwise as far as it will go and locate a small pin on the outside of the switch cylinder. Depress this pin with a pick or paperclip, continue turning the key counter-clockwise and once the pin is released, the key and inner cylinder should pull out. Then disassemble the lock and remover the tumblers. Then reassemble in reverse order. The key will start the car without the tumblers because it's a chip key. (No one can use another key to start your car....because they don't have the correctly programmed chip key.)
Turning the steering wheel left to right rapidly while turning the key in the ignition should free up the ignition switch. If this does not rectify the problem it could be with the lever lockout or the key itself.

if your pushing in the button to release the key the tumblers in ignition switch bad If you have an A/T, the shift linkage might be off alittle not letting the shifter go all the way into park.
