I can't get my key to turn on my 04 Liberty Sport.
I am at rock bottom right now. I don't know a lot about automotive stuff. I have $40 until Friday and I have a lot of places to go before then, critical appointments and school pickup.
I tried hitting the key, that didn't work. I don't think the actuator is damaged(yet anyways).
I read that you can start it with a screwdriver but I don't know where you would do that. I tried the ignition switch but that didn't do anything but make a singular clicking noise somewhere.
I can't get the lock cylinder out because the key won't turn.
I don't know anything about bridging electricity so I don't know how I would turn the car off if that method actually works.
I'm pretty sure the problem is the lock cylinder, an uneducated guess.
Can I somehow start it with a screwdriver?
Can I take the lock assembly out and try to repair that part and get the key to turn outside of the vehicle?
