Sounds like your ignition switch is either gone bad, or you have some loose wires in the colum.
You can take the upper and lower covers of the colum off and insp to see if you have a loose connector. Most likely you will have to replace the ignition switch. Make sure you adhere to the warning for airbag deactivation before you attempt to work in the colum.
