Please Help Guys

Have you tried rocking the steering wheel while turning the key?

Too Many Times,and Nothing Happened,the Only Light Is On In Dash Is The Red Srs Light,and You Can Not Move The Key To The Start Position

Maybe I shouldn´t ask, but anyway, is the gear in P or N..?

The tumbler and/or steering lock will need to be replaced with new.

it is on p for sure

there is any way that i can get the car started atleast i can drive it home ,and i can have some one look at it here ,its still parked at the mall ??and if i do that ,how do i turn it off since the key dont come out ?

OK, if the key is sitting as a rock I have no idea. But if you can twist it a little but as you say not get it out or to start, it may be the little electric switch close to the gear selector. I have not opened this up myself, but it should be pretty easy to check if somebody can fill you in how....

Moving the stick from P and back, if possible, may also get it into the right position..?

thanks ,but i tried to move the geer to d and n and 2 and 3 and it moved ,but could not get the key out,the key can move just a little till the right in this position can give you power in the car as the radio ,but can not start it or take it out ,and i am sorry ,i did not know what you mean by the switch you were talking about can you tell me more or give me a pic please? thank you much

This points to an electric gremlin, possibly in this switch. Maybe it is just to lift the frame around the stick and have a look? Sorry I am no expert, just guessing from what I have read elsewhere...

thanks ,i tried this also ,and it did not work either
