Default key wont turn/steering wheel wont unlock

'97 accord stick shift. wanting to make a quiet entry, key was turned off and wheel locked in straight ahead position and coasted into driveway and rolled to a stop. Now the key will not turn and steering will not unlock. ( yes i jiggled the wheel ! ) lights powerup and ding dong bell sounds with door open when lights on. the system acts as if no key is in ignition.....no ding dong when door is open with key in ignition. used original key and tried duplicate. key wont turn and wheel wont unlock.....please help ! thanks......jim

This board is for questions about the website, not about cars. I'll move this over to General Tech.
