What's the reason when the steering wheel isn't locked but the key won't turn?

The reason why the steering wheel isn't locked but the key won't turn: The steering wheel is locked. After the vehicle is turned off, the steering wheel will automatically lock as a simple anti-theft feature. When the vehicle is started with the key, the steering wheel will automatically unlock. However, sometimes when parking, if the steering wheel is positioned at a certain angle where the key can be turned to ignite but not unlock the steering wheel, this phenomenon occurs. You can gently turn the key with your right hand while lightly turning the steering wheel with your left hand, and the steering wheel will naturally unlock. The steering wheel is the wheel-shaped device used to control the direction of cars, ships, airplanes, etc. Its function is to convert the force applied by the driver to the edge of the steering wheel into torque and then transmit it to the steering shaft.
