Question Can not get the ignition switch to unlock

I accidentally inserted my wife's lexus key into my RX400H and now I can not get my the ignition switch to unlock. I tried the lock and unlock procedure as
instructed by the on call folks but nothing seems to work. I popped the cap off the transmission lock and was able to move the transmission into neutral but that had no effect?

this might sound stupid but did you try wiggling the steering wheel while turning the key?
