Key stuck in ignition in park. Check charging system comes on. Dealership says it might be a fuse.

If key won't come out of ignition the problem is most likely park shift interlock. The park shift interlock is a device that won't allow vehicle to be started unless it is in park. Also the cable could be stuck.

Depends on the car. Could be an immobilizer if your car has a security system.

This vehicle is equipped with a chipped ignition system.On your dash warning lights,when turn key into on position you'll notice a yellow key symbal, it should flash then go out. If it flashes then goes to solid on, it means the system does not recognize signal from key. This can be because of wrong key(original valet key will not start car) or key for whatever reason has been deprogrammed. Which can only be done by dealership unfortunately. If system is working(light does go out) then you need to look at possible brake switch sensor,park/neutral safety switch on shifter, and for signal at started when key turned to start position

could be something with the automatic combined the stift shift

Thanks for choosing FixYa and welcome to the site. You should go ahead and check all your fuses in your fuse box. There is a chance that you activated the security system in the vehicle. It may need reset. If the code isn't in your owner manual, you will need to get the code from the dealership. Since the key is stuck, you may have a bad ignition module or lock cylinder. Make sure the shifter is firmly in park and you could also try moving the steering wheel left to right, while trying to get the key out. I am not sure if the security system can lock the ignition module up. It is possible. If it is not the alarm and the key is stuck, you will have to get a new ignition module and lock cylinder. The part alone is a few hundred dollars. Go ahead and check your a/c fuses. Check your battery and make sure it is holding a proper charge. Clean the terminals and battery post and make sure the terminals are not damaged. Make sure the wires are not damaged as well. When you are checking the fuses, check the entire fuse box. Make sure no other fuses have blown and make sure nothing shorted out. You could have an electrical issue. Once you check the fuses, try looking in your owner manual for a security code. If you can't find one, check the dealership. Make sure you have your VIN number and vehicle info. The alarm could have caused it to not start. If you have any questions, feel free to ask and thanks for using FixYa.

try playing with shifter. move from park to low rapidly and push to park with some force. try this a few times. the shifter sends a signal to a lock actuator to allow your ignition to release key. if that doesnt work remove your steering wheel lower cover. usually acces 2-3 screws from underneath cover. u will see what looks like a gold pushbutton located near lock cylinder u may be able to get key released by manually actuating that solenoid

tyr it in netral

If your car is automatic the key won't come out until its in park. Putting it in park trigers a master-switch which isolates the positive of the battery. So when you take off the cable will do the same thing. The problem is most likely comming from there. Simple thing's first. Try moving it in and out of park while each time try to remove the key. If the key comes out then the problem is with the switch in the trans. If it won't come out then check the fuse. Then relay switch. I cannot tell you just which is the problem without trying so can only advise you. Cheer's

if the key is stuck in the ignition hold your foot on the brake with the car off put it in drive then back in park and the key should come out
