Key and starter won't turn on car? No accessory/fuel pump.
Hello.
I recently drove my car around, like usual. Then when I came back to the car after moving it, the key ignition will no longer work. It spins freely, and I don't feel it locking into "Accessory", and then giving me that small bit of resistance at the "on" position. It just spins loosely in the ignition and won't turn on accessory or my fuel pump. I even tried jump starting it by using a screw driver and my starter, and nothing. All that happened was you hear the starter work perfectly, but it just spins. The starter would wind up for seconds at a time, but would not crank the motor over. Battery was charged perfectly fine, and I have had the clutch start bypassed.
Any specific fuses I should check? Or is my ignition assembly screwed? (How do I get to remove the ignition assembly in the first place lol)

Well looks like lock broke. I had that happen on lx 470 there is lots of info on fixing it ? Lock is attached to metal part that unlock steering column and turns switch that starts the car.

Been having the same problem, and took it to my local garage because I'm good friends with the owner.
They thought it could be a relay, and it turned out to not be one.
They then confirmed it was the Ignition Switch, I just realized you posted your lock related issue, but if that still doesn't fix it I would check the ignition switch.

The ignition switch itself had the plastic in the back broken off. I superglued and ziptied it back together and just put it back in, has been working fine ever since. Sorry for never updating this. But it is rather old now lol.
