Quick easy fix if turning your key in your older Ford vehicle doesn't start the engine. It's weird, jiggling it sometimes makes it better and then after some time turning it to start just doesn't do anything.

Thank you
My new ignition lock assembly - supposedly for a 2010 Ford Escape (the vehicle I have) - the new key cylinder hole was too short for the key cylinder. I measured both the old and new ones and the new one was clearly too short. So I'm stuck.

Are you sure you got the correct part?

Perhaps not, but it is one of the many on amazon (including your suggestion)... I cannot tell any difference by looking at amazon, and they all say that they are for 2008 - 2012 Escape. Not complaining about your video - it was very useful....

Should have also said that, as far as I can tell, this is the *only* difference in the ignition lock assembly between the new and the old.

@@MarkClaussen That's interesting, I would think the item may be in correct and try to exchange it with Amazon. If it's still the case I'd try to get a new lock assembly to go with it. Glad to hear that this video actually is helpful though. When I first made this nobody watched it for the longest time and then suddenly it started getting a lot of views.
Don’t u have to get a new replacement key or re program key for the new ignition

Nope I reused the original PATS sensor thing (security chip immobilizer thing) and the key cylinder.
You could also just drill the head off of the screw/bolt

I forget if it was easy to get at with a drill but I think this was faster than drilling a bolt head that size.
Did you replace the security imobilizer?

No, I only the steering column lock assembly and the ignition switch itself was swapped. The key cylinder was ported over with the original immobilizer sensor ring.
