My daugther has a Saturn sl2 v6, she went to give her grandpa a jumstart using cables but grandpa decided to start up his car before i turned the ignition on her saturn. Grandpas car started right up but after cables were removed and she went to start up the saturn the key won't even turn, steering is locked, cant move gears. The dash lights up the remote to lock/unlock still works. I tested the battery and is showing fully charged (only 6 mons old). My options are limited...i need to move the car, its blocking my street. Could it be the computer or security/alarm system? HELP!!! Desperate mother [email protected]

OK I don't know if this is your problem but my 92 sl2 is kinda the same way. my sl2s ECTS went out and it dose the same this is what it looks like4c01145.jpg you will have to remove the air duct to get to it and this is were it's located keep in mind there are two of them you want to unplug the one with two wires it is lower on the block. but do not remove it.

after unpluging it try starting your car if it starts them you will have to get a new ECTS Coolant Temp Sensor. btw don't drive around with it unpluged just becouse it runs dosen't mean you should use it like that.
