Ignition cylinder troubleshooting

Hello! While replacing my ignition switch I removed my ignition cylinder, while playing around with it I turned the key to the "lock" position and now it wont turn at all!
I've sprayed WD40 in it hoping it might be some stuck pins but no luck. It's like the key is no longer correct for the cylinder..
Any ideas? I believe it has to be in the "acc" position to go back into the steering column.
Any help would be great, I'm likely just being an idiot but Ive never messed with ignitions before. Thanks!

That’s the correct lock
The rekey kit has been superseded twice. The original kit was A-30-104. Great kit, even has springs and new bezels(except tailgate). It got superseded to a-30-116. Bigger kit that does at least 3 different series of locks, and no bezels. You can find locksmiths selling old 104 kits on eBay fairly often. Just gotta keep an eye out.
