My key will not remove from the ignition. The ignition will not return to its mark to let key release. Do you have any ideas to fix this problem.

Climb into the vehicle and close the door. Insert the key into the ignition but do not turn on the vehicle.
Hold down the "Unlock" button on the driver's door while turning the key to the right to the "Accessories" position. Continue holding down the "Unlock" button.
Turn the ignition key back to the "Off" position while continuing to hold the "Unlock" button then return the key to the "On" position again. Then return the ignition key to the "Off" position. As you complete this sequence, the doors will lock, and the horn will sound, indicating that you've entered the programming mode. At this point, release the "Unlock" button on the driver's door.
Push both the "Lock" and "Unlock" buttons on the key-less remote and hold them for roughly 15 seconds. Release the buttons when the locks click again.
Insert the key into the ignition and turn it to the "On" position. The horn will honk once more. This indicates the programming has been successful.
Remove the key from the ignition. Climb out of the vehicle and try locking and unlocking the doors with your remote key.

Key won't come out of ignition . . . - JK-Forum

Put into park and press foot brake! Then release key!

ignition switch is bad it sounds like. you have to pull steering wheelthere is usaully a switch inside you need to push in while you turnkey to pull cylender out

Hello, It sounds like a bad Ignition switch. The keyswitch provides power to its terminals in back of the switch. The engine will have power to turn the starter and run the engine when the engine is in the START position. When the key returns to the RUN position, the next terminal on the switch is suppose to provide power to run the engine.

When the electrical contacts inside the switch wear out, the power is not put through the plug-in terminals. That is when you replace the Ignition switch.

To replace the Ignition switch, if it is in the steering column, you disconnect the negative battery cable first, and then remove the plastic cover on the steering column. There are screws under the bottom cover and you just remove them through the small holes moulded in the plastic cover. There may be a hole near the bottom of the Ignition switch which requires a long nail or drillbit to press a release spring.

Usually the key needs to be in the ACC or RUN position and the key core will pull out of the switch. Then you make a mark on the frame of the steering column before removing the switch. Some mounts are adjustable and some just bolt up and making a mark is not necessary.

Then reverse the removal procedure to reinstall a new part.

The pontiac G5 has a defect on some of them that need a new ignition switch. I just had to get mine replaced because mine did the exact same thing. If you remove the fuse it will not fix the problem!

This vintage Ford has notorious problems with weakening springs in the ignition assembly, allowing the ignition to remain in the start position even after the engine is started. Common problems with this issue is the starter continuing to grind after key is released, and electrical accessories not functioning when key is released. Simple fix: Gently turn key back just a little after engine starts, allowing the ignition switch to stay where it should be if it were to return on it's own. Better fix: Replace ignition cylinder. Not a bad idea, especially since this year Ford has a seperate key for the doors anyway, not requiring a rekeying of the door locks. Hope this helps. Sometimes a thorough cleaning of the ignition linkage/assembly with compressed air will clean years of dust off of the factory greased parts.

Remove ignition barrel covers and as your wiggling the key knock the ignition barrel with appropriate tool to try and loosen whats jammed Either way have to take covers off to remove barrel and replace.
