whining sound when turning the steering wheel, in either direction, means that the power steering fluid is low and/or possibly the power steering pump is going bad.
hmm im just guessing but try turning the steering wheel either direction while trying to turn the key in the ignition. you may have to try turning the wheel both ways.
if the pump has failed completely it will cause stiff turning, obviously not being assisted by power. if the pump is failing there may be a squealing sound when turned in either direction. This is not to be confused with the squealing made when turning the wheel to its limits.
The problem could be the lock for the steering wheel. Move the steering either side while trying to turn the key.
you probly have a bad tie rod on one side if u turn the wheel and here sot of like a bumb sound when just in park then that is what it is The power steering pump either does not have enough fluid has to much fluid or the pump itself is malfunctioning.
Sounds like you need to add some power steering fluid.
You simply need to turn your steering wheel either way to get the ignition switch to unlock. Turn the key while you are turning the steering wheel and it will unlock it.
The first obvious answer is that you are using the wrong key. It is possible that one or more of the pins in the lock is stuck in the up position. try using some wd-40 or some other penitrating oil and work the key in and out for a while. A shot of compressed air in the lock after the oil may help. Another possibility is that the steering wheel was turned so that when the key was turned off and the pressure turning the wheel was released, it put pressure the other way on the ignition switch causing it to hold the key from turning. Try turning the steering wheel a little in either direction then turn the key.
Either your belt is worn out or your power steering pump is low on fluid or needs replaced.
maybe it is the wrong key ...
sounds like either your power steering is going out, or you are low on power steering fluid
