Cannot turn car off Something in my ignition system broke, but I'm not 100% sure what it is.
The car starts perfectly fine, but then I can turn the key to off, and remove it from the cylinder and the car keeps running.
So, other than the ignition switch, what else should I check? Could the ignition relay cause this?

Ok, so if I lower the steering column, just loosing the nuts to drop it down 1/2 an inch or so, the Ignition works normally. When I tighten the column back up the ignition won't turn off.
I did notice that the rod doesn't move when trying to turn it off, so it seems something is pinching it, and the ignition switch itself is good.
What could be causing the rod to not move out when the steering column is in the correct position? I'm guessing that when a shop removed the radio control wires from my steering wheel that is what caused it, but I can't see anything obvious.
