Answer
It is possible that the electrical part of the ignition switch is bad.The mechanical part is just that mechanical.It could be worn out(doubtful),you would see when removing the tumbler from the column.Check all your electrical connections, ground connections,and the wires(bumpy looking although the casing is complete)
