Steering Lock

The steering lock is a security feature that protects your Ignis from being taken when it's in gear. It's a vital safety measure, but it can be a hassle when you need to go someplace and you're not able to unlock the wheel. There are a few simple things you can do to fix the issue.

The first step is to verify that the ignition switch is in the "on" position. If this is the case, try turning the key in the direction you were turning prior to the wheel locked up. It can be a bit difficult, but generally it is enough to unlock the wheels.

If the wheel doesn't unlock after spraying canned air in the ignition cylinder make sure that the cylinder is lubricated. Just be sure to put on eye protection before taking this action to ensure you don't get any air that has been sprayed into your eyes! Liquid graphite can also be used to make the cylinder more lubricated.

Another possible cause is the cylinder that controls ignition can wear out. The lock pins inside may get stuck or stuck together, which can prevent the key from being able to go all the way into or out of the ignition cylinder.

Graphite or liquid graphite will help the lock pins to move more freely, which will unlock your key. It is available in most auto parts stores. Be sure to put your Ignis in park prior to applying the fluid. Do not try to manhandle the Ignis to release it from its binding. This could lead to more serious problems.

You can try to massage it forward, but be careful not to press too hard, as you could cause damage to the cylinder.
