All day, no problems. Now, the key won’t turn in the ignition. Any ideas and or suggestions?

Check fuses under dah and fusible link at battery.
Does the Charge light indicator light up when turning the key?

Check that the steering wheel isn't tight against the lock (the one that keeps the steering wheel from turning with out the key). Try turning the wheel one way or the other to release pressure on the locking mechanism.
