the ignition switch is commonly caled the key lock clyinder

If you have tilt steering then you need to take it to a dealership they will have a specail tool to remove the pivot pins in the steering column housing. this makes key lock cylinder replacement impossible for the home auto repair technician.

if it is not tilt steering 1) remove negative battery cable 2) remove steering wheel: probably need steering wheel puller for this. 3) remove turn signal switch assembly 4) place lock cylinder in RUN position 5) remove turn signal switch housing screws 6) remove turn signal switch housing and steering shaft assembly : as complete unit: 7) lift the switch tab with a screwdriver then GENTLY pull on the buzzer switch wires and remove the buzzer switch 8) place the lock cylinder in the accessory position 9) remove retaing screws fro lock clyinder and remove the lock cylinder. 10) reverse to install.

In my case it was the ignition switch itself had overheated and seized up. Replace the switch (have to lower the column, disconnect the wiring plug from the switch, and remove/replace the switch.) Clean all connections to the switch, make sure they're connected solidly and not heating up again.
