She was running great. I pulled into the garage and hit the valet button instead of the trunk release. That was corrected with your past posts. THANKS! Now it will not start. When I put the key in, the steering wheel drops as usual but the key will not turn--nothing--no dash lights or crank. Did I hit a main kill anti thief something?

Did you try to jiggle the steering wheel back and forth while you try to turn the key? I havent had it happen on my Jags, but I know some GM vehicles are pretty finicky when the steering wheel locks. Wiggling the steering wheel while turning the key will generally alleviate this, unless I am mis reading your post.
Unless you're saying the key turns but will not activate anything. If that's the case that is an entirely different issue.
