Key won't turn in ignition BigCity 12-09-2006, 09:49 AM
Hi All, My problem today is that I can put the key in the ignition but the key will not turn. I've read posts about stuck keys but they do not address the problem I am having. My car is in park and I have tried moving the steering wheel and shift lever. Cold weather may be an issue. Do I need to replace ignition tumbler and assembly? Any help would be appreciated, thanks! 1999 Rodeo LS 3.2 4wd Auto Trans, 102K amigo-2k 12-09-2006, 09:59 AM http://isuzufaq.ibctech.ca/#faq78 2eyefishclaw 12-11-2006, 06:56 PM right side of shift there is a plastic cover on the shift bezel remove it look inside of there with a flashlight there is a micro switch with a little metal arm on it over time the arm looses tension it needs to be bent so that when the shifter is in park the switch is closed I usually use two small flat scredrivers to get it into place one to hold it one to bend it 2eyefishclaw 12-11-2006, 07:03 PM right side of shift there is a plastic cover on the shift bezel remove it look inside of there with a flashlight there is a micro switch with a little metal arm on it over time the arm looses tension it needs to be bent so that when the shifter is in park the switch is closed I usually use two small flat scredrivers to get it into place one to hold it one to bend it Related Links Enter the largest automotive community on the planet! |
