1999 expedition, 5.4

Turned the key too hard and it's stuck in the "on" position even with the key removed. have to start it with ignition switch and disconnect the battery every time I park so it doesn't drain.

I Think it's something internal with the ignition lock cylinder but I can't afford to change it out.

Has anyone else done this to themselves .. Is there another way to fix it without buying a new one. Even if I had the money to replace it, I Really don't wanna carry two sets of keys... LOL. Oops 😬

 

Not sure exactly how the release tab works with expedition, other ford in general, you insert something like allen wrench into the hole, pick the biggest (in diameter) wrench that's slightly smaller than the hole, while pulling the lock cylinder out.
Once you get it out, use dry lube to lubricate it, you can't use any wd40 or white lithium grease, it must be dry lube.
