    You could be using the wrong keys.

    Steering lock is on, move steering wheel as you turn key.

    You might need a new ignition cylinder unit.

    Put key in ignition and while your trying to turn the key move the steering wheel,this should sort it.

    no, the steering lock is not on... Im sure these are the right keys but it is only used on the farm and i left both sets of keys in it when it went flat... The barrel was changed shortly before it was declared SORN... Really getting up my back now

    Hotwire it if it's just for farm use.
