Wink 97 cav,Key will not turn.

Hello folks,when I have a problem that I can not figure I have come to combined brain power for help.
I have a 97 cavalier,The key can be removed from the switch it will not release.I have tried force just loading the steering wheel one way or the other did the same with the shifter.The key will not turn.Happened all of a sudden.I read that there is a lock pin that can be adjusted but have not found instructions so I do not just start throwing parts at it.
I am betting it is the switch.The question is how do you remove it when it will not turn.Looking at videos they all show that the switch must be turned to aline the tumblers...
Any help will be out standing.
Thank you
