Default ignition issues

I got to work today and I turned the key off, but the engine stayed running. Ordinarily I would think this was the ignition switch. So, I removed it. And still the same issues, the car is getting power still. Obviously I didn't do this while the car was running. If I bump the steering wheel, it will trigger the power on and off, even lightly bump it. I don't see any exposed wires or anything causing this. Any ideas?? HELP! Thanks

did you remove the ignition SWITCH, or just the lock cylinder?
