Key stuck in ignition

[Dhos1]

I just changed the driver side window motor and wanted to do a quick check to ensure it works before button it back up and now the key will not come out. I do have the transmission out to be redone. And ideas. I’m sure it has to do with a linkage of some sort

If you have a console shift car, try rotating the plastic cover near the base of the cluster.

Sometimes is gets just a touch out of whack & it won’t go fully into Park.

Tried that, will continue tomorrow. I still think it may have something to do with the disconnected linkage, but who knows. I’m tired of fucking with it for now

I understand.

That column piece is directly connected to the linkage(again if ya have column shift).

Can also try moving the wheel back & forth. Been known to happen as well.

even a floor shift car uses wheel lock that can keep the key not going to lock position
raise the rod that has the slip nut that goes to the shifter arm
