My son’s car key works in the door but not in the ignitiuon. We have done all the typical things like Turning the steering wheel, jigglinging the key, etc. I’m headed out toi get some graphite to shoot in and see if it will loosen the tumblers.  
  
  
  
 Anyone have a similar experience or suggestion?

Does this mean that some other key will work in the ignition, but not your son’s?
