Ignition Switch?

You can't start your car with a bad ignition switch. That's because this switch is responsible for initiating engine operation. When you turn your key to "start" in this switch's lock cylinder, its electrical switch connects the ignition system to your battery. The battery then sends massive amounts of power to your starter, thereby starting engine operation. When the key is turned to "accessories", some of your car's components become usable, like your radio. These accessories function without draining your battery.
Naturally, when a part of this switch stops working, your vehicle's operation becomes compromised. So how do you know which part of your ignition switch is broken? Well, anything key-related usually indicates a problem with the lock cylinder. So if you can drive using just any key, or if your key refuses to turn, then you need to inspect your lock cylinder as soon as possible. But if the problem is that your car simply won't start, then there's a chance that you've got a damaged plastic housing and/or wiring. Examine your ignition thoroughly to be sure.
If after inspecting your ignition, you find out that the damage is irreparable, replace the entire ignition switch as soon as possible.
