Vauxhall Combo 2009 - Trouble with key barrel - spread0410

Hi everyone, need help with ignition problem. I went to start van this morning and it wouldn't start when I turn the key. I can turn the key full way, but it doesn't generate an ignition spark at all, just flat. The battery isn't dead and the steering wheel isn't locked. When I took the key out, the dashboard lights wouldn't turn off. This made me wonder if the power was still running, and sure enough, windscreen wipers still on, so only way I can get the power to go out is by disconnecting the battery. So I have power, can turn the key but no start...is this an immobiliser issue, a key issue or key barrel issue? thanks in advance for any help.

Really does sound like a battery issue. I would have it tested .
