Igniton switch broke I have a 96 ti and earlier I turned my car off and when I turned the key back I heard apop noise, the key came out just like it should but it was still running and everything was still on. I put the key back in and tried to turn it and it wont. It wont turn at all unless you put crap load of pressure on it but then it just spins freely. Has anyone had this issue? If so what did you have to do to fix it? I can see getting a new tumbler but what all with that involve? PLEASE HELP!!!
