I was having trouble turning my key in the ignition so in March 2022 I replaced my ignition lock cylinder.
In the last 10 days the ignition has stopped turning to the off position and stops at the accessory position.
I can remove my key when it's in the accessory position.
Today I removed the cylinder and noticed that the nub (lock button) that locks the cylinder in place is missing.
Now when I try to reinstall the cylinder, since it will not turn to the off position, it will not lock in place and just slides out.
I have another cylinder housing but since it will not turn to off I cannot remove the cylinder and swap it out.
Any idea why the keys comes out when turned to accessory or why it will not turn to the off position?
