Just worked for me. I hit it 3 times as I was trying to turn it and it turned. Thanks

😂this helped so much I was getting so frustrate. I didn’t have a mallet but I did have my pistol. So I just unloaded it and hit it with the but end and it worked .

This worked for me as well. 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Ultimately need to get a locksmith to replace the barrel. But this can get you by. Dont whack the key very hard. Couple firm raps and keep trying. Took me a few attempts.

ya had that happen over the weekend smacked it with an object and now works but only thing I can't figure out is ever since that happened now every so often I go to crank the jeep over and it will engage for just a half a turn on the starter then I have to turn key to off to reset the egnition and then it goes back to normal for a while again still baffles the fuck outta me though why these issues are occurring never had any issues before and I noticed that it seems my locking mechanism has worn down wonder if that has something to do with why it done that Wes and tear I've never had to replace the egnition switch for tumber in since I've owned it for 9 years
