have a 1999 Jeep the steering wheel is locked upside down. The ignition will not recognize the key any sugge?

Answer 1

Hahahahahah! I remember my sister calling me because the car wouldn't start.

You gotta turn the steering wheel right, maybe half an inch or so, and put the key in and start the car. Almost every car locks when you turn the wheel too far, not sure why, security thing I guess.

Answer 2

you may have to put the key in the ignition - then pull the steering wheel further into the turn - to take pressure off the key -

then try to turn the key while holding pressure

if not try pressure the other way - (probably will only move one way- and that's away from the key)

best of luck!

Answer 3

seem under the guidance culumn close to the main for slightly conceal. gently pry this cap off, and mutually as shifting the guidance wheel off the sure element, experience in this hollow for a change or something that slides. it is going to launch the guidance wheel and the main. you apart from mght could attempt jiggling the shifter mutually as turning the main. Lok to verify if there's slightly plate on the console; if so, pry it off and carry on with the technique above. you often % to park with the guidance wheel located such that it is not against the lock (end of rotation) once you turn the main off.
