Try your 2nd ignition key if you have it, try cleaning the little metal contacts on the key itself.

If cleaning the keys does not work...

The wires going to the key cylinder broke off the PASS key II reader inside.

2 options:

go to dealer and spend $300 to replace the key cylinder

-or-

measure the resistance in your key and wire in a resistor of the same value to the 2 small white wires inside a orange heatshrink tubing leading to inside the steering wheel column.

That happened to me one time. I took the fuse from the in gauges out, and then replaced it. It turned right up.
