    NO, but the lock cylinder slides into the swtich and turns there. The key does not turn inside the lock cylinder only makes the cylinder turn inside the switch.

    I got it out, a couple really good hits with a ball peen hammer, some PB, some wiggling and it came out.

    Upon a better investigation of the lock cylinder it does not match the one I took out. Stupid Advanced Auto parts, I hate aftermarket stuff, it is never right.

    Are you sure that your steering wheel didn't lock which would prevent you from turning the ignition until you took the bind off the locking mechanism.
