Ignition key doesn't spring back after starting ....

[Fay Kelley]

Recently replaced ignition switch ....

now when I turn the key a week later, it will not spring back into 
the place it should be.
The lights, etc., will not work unless I manually return the key to 
the position it should return to with some sort of spring.

Is that most likely the housing or the lock cylinder ?

It is a big project to take the dash off again ... would it be better 
to just replace both parts while it is off?
