1999 toyto tacoma

Truck cranks fine--however when you turn it off you cannot get the key out of the ignition. It stays in the on position. I unplug the battery so as not to drain it. Then I can get the key out of the ignition.

What do you think the problem may be

Then I can get the key out of the ignition---hook the battery back up

You are pushing the key in then turning all the way to the left.

To remove the key

It is such Muscle Memory I don`t think about it

If this does not allow you to remove the key.

You most likely have a Lock cylinder problem or a burr on the key.

Does flipping the key around make a difference??
