More Gremlins!

Ok this one's really weird...  Last Friday, I came home from the office as usual, turned the car off and that was the last thing I did, until the next morning, that is.

I got back in the car... and the key wouldn't go into the ignition (the door opened just fine though).  No damage to lock or ignition, so I'm ruling out the break-in attempt at this point...  Anyway, the key finally went in, and turned to position 1, but would not go any further no matter HOW much I tried.

Finally, last Sunday, I decided to get to the bottom of it and took the steering wheel off, the steering column switch assemblies (indicators, wipers, cruise control) apart and started twisting the key around in the locking cylinder until YES!! the key suddenly (but grudgingly) turned over all the way.  I sprayed some WD-40 inside the locking mechanism and followed it up by putting a small bead of bearing grease on the tip of the key, inserting it into the lock and turning it back and forth.  Rinse and repeat a few times and it's been smooth as silk ever since...

Another little success on the way to stability!  Stay tuned for the next one!
