Ignition Lock Repair

The key fights you in the ignition — grinding, sticking, needing a jiggle that gets longer every month — or it stopped turning entirely.

THE WORK, EXPLAINED

Start with the condition.
Understand the scope.

Describe when the ignition sticks and whether another key behaves differently. Ask whether the fault is in the key, cylinder, steering lock or another part of the system. Discuss service versus replacement, compatibility with the existing key arrangement and the operating positions that will be checked after the work.

What may be involved

  • ignition cylinder
  • keyed-alike pinning
  • retaining pins
  • steering column trim clips

Ask the provider to distinguish existing parts to inspect, proposed replacements, and tools, materials or reports included in the service. Confirm the work and exclusions after assessment; this list does not mean that every item will be supplied or replaced.

Car Key Replacement

The vehicle key is missing or no longer works. Have the make, model, year and any remaining keys ready for assessment.

Spare Car Key Duplication

Only one working vehicle key remains and you want a compatible spare before it is lost or damaged.

Key Fob Programming

The remote stopped talking to the car, a replacement fob arrived unprogrammed, or a used-car purchase came with one fob and a shrug.

Transponder Key Programming

The key turns but the engine does not start. The cause has not been confirmed; you want to check whether key recognition is involved.
