key stuck in acc position by ladyintx

To all of you who have had your key stick in the acc position while turning it off: if you have been through the multiple trips, been towed, etc,etc tell your nearest dealer that you want the BTSI switch replaced......the automatic transmission shift lock control. I had a new ignition, new keys and still had a problem until yesterday.
My power steering went out also last week and that got a new motor and steering module. The key sticking took 2.5 yrs of problematic visits and ultimately 5 dealerships. I'm just hoping to help anyone out there.

Power Steering out - car won't start by nyghtcloud

One day I left my keys in the car and battery died. After giving it the usual time to tried again to crank but I had no luck. I replaced the battery which immediately powered the car up because you could here the lock system kick in. But when I tried to start the car it would not turn. Now the car has a brand new battery and it still won't start. Is there anyone who knows of a quick fix that can help me get the car to the dealer. I live too far to have it driven all the way to the dealer so is there switch, fuse or wire that can be repaired long enough to DRIVE IT to the dealer and let them go from there? If anyone has had this issue or you are a mechanic, please tell how to fix this. I am am not an expert but I can fix the basics (brakes, oil change, electrical).

It sounds like a pass lock issue. My buddy used to be a Saturn mechanic and he said that the pass lock and lower control arm bushings are the 2 main things that go bad on the Ions. He said you just have to replace some module in the steering column. Hope that helps.

Jeremy thanks for the info. Unfortunately, I would need to know the specific parts he replaced to help me figure out what is keeping the car from starting in the first place. Once I get past that problem then everything else is gravy. But again thanks. I will talk with AUTOZONE/ADVANCE AUTO stores and see if they have heard of this module change, but if you happen to know how I can ask you friend directly it might help. Thanks again and have a great day.
