I got lucky
In order to start the repair, the key needed to be taken out so that the console cover could be removed. The key head is bigger than the opening in the console for the cylinder.
After I did that, the cylinder would turn and the switch worked. I immediately lubed the cylinder with graphite and it is now working fine, including the lockout mechanism. All my keys work and the cylinder is still locked when the key is removed.
Hooray!
