Default Trouble with ignition lock

Hi everyone,
can anyone help me with this.
I got into my car this morning and tried to turn on the ignition, the key turned to position I and released the steering lock but would turn no further. I tried for ages but the key kept stopping at the same position.
I have sprayed lubricant into the lock and even disconnected and re-connected the battery in case it was something electrical.
It may be that the lock is knackered but this is the first time I have had a problem with it.
Thanks for any advice you can give.
Cheers
BigAls1

I had the same problem. Had to order lock cylinder from Sweden which means Dealership. You can seperate the lock from the switch and start car, but park where it will be safe.
