Do you have alot of stuff on your key chain weighing it down? Sometimes that will cause your ignition to wear down and stop turning. You may have to get a whole new ignition switch

That's very true might have worren out the ignition key lock cylinders by putting weight in your keychain. One of my friends had that done to his prelude for that reason.
