I also think Kroil would be good to free it up, and then if it was mine, I'd use a few drops of ATF to keep it lubricated. I know someone will say don't use oil because it will attract dirt and gum up the works. I've used ATF on many ignition switches and door locks for my cars, and never had a problem.
