Volvo Repair: volvo240dl 1986, electrical portion, car key

Question
broke my car key..the other half was left  inside the keyhole..locksmith cant remove the key(half)from the hole...please teach me how to unlock the steering without the key...and how to hotwire...cant be towed because the wheels are turned all the way to the right....thanks

Answer
bert, the only way to do it is to break the lock mechanism or to take it out.  As far as hot wiring, no need too.  Remove electrical portion of the ignition switch from the back of igntion key assembly, plug it back in and use a screwdriver to turn the switch on.  Its like using a key.  Main problem is the lock.  Car will run but still needs the steering column unlocked.  Roger
