Ignition Repair & Replacement FAQs
Why will my key not turn in the ignition?
Common causes are a worn key, worn wafers inside the cylinder, or the steering wheel lock being engaged. Try gently turning the steering wheel while turning the key. If that does not work, call us.
Do I need a new key with a new ignition?
Usually not. We can rekey most replacement cylinders to match your existing key, and transponder programming stays the same.
