Some sort of issue with the steering colum right?
Column shifter? Try pulling up on it when you turn the key. Neutral safety switch might be out of whack. [Reply]
Have you tried putting it in neutral and then starting the vehicle? There is a park neutral switch. If something is misaligned or going bad the other position might allow it to crank. [Reply]
