Sounds like lack of lubrication. STRATTEC makes a product called Lokshot that's intended for this. Honda makes a similar product you should be able to order. They're both greases rather than oils. In a pinch you can try a 1 second shot of WD40, but it's not really an oil. If you can get the key in, work it in and out, CW and CCW a few times to distribute it.
