A couple tips for that first pin i drilled a hole on the side of the pin, not next to it but on top part and it popped out i almost lost the pin so make sure you do it on a towel or something. For the second pin make sure you tap it one time and hard if not it will make a lip and it won’t go thru. I had to remove the gold thing and drill a hole right on top of the pin and push it up thru the bottom. It wasn’t as easy as his and i used the same orange picks. Now when you take the last part out don’t make the same mistake i did. PULL IT OUT WITH THE KEY IN if not all the little pins will fall out. Then you just remove whichever little pins are sticking out. I removed like 2 of them and i was fine. Key was able to turn after words.

So that's how you do it when the ignition is lock or stuck cant wait for your new content

You Sir have helped me big time, your directions are so clear. I followed all steps and my car is starting again. Thank you for this. My name is Nyasha im watching from Harare in Zimbabwe.

My son called me with the same problem he didn't have WD 40 handy so I told him to dip the key in motor oil and it work like a charm didn't have to take anything apart.

This helped me 100% it was sticky for a few days I was able to turn the key after a few attempts and at a friend's front door it wasn't turning after trying for half hour, watched this video and it was exactly that, took apart, pulled that wafer and spring and back together starting the car in 3 hours.. that's pretty good for me, I'm nothing close to a professional

Awesome work! I wonder if you filed off the key sticking above the cylinder if that would work versus removing it completely? That would save some effort and time, and prevent you from messing up the lock by taking it apart and putting back together again.

Very very good

Thank you very much it’s work 100%

Remove the gold arm and drill a lil hole thru the top to push the pin out.

@vin dadi did you have to Disconnect the battery on the car before removing the ignition lock from the vehicle?

I went to the store and got 2 8mm metric bolts to put it back on the steering column since the ones that it comes with you can’t take them off the way to take them off is to grab a flat hit screw driver and bang on them at an angle with a hammer to get them to screw off (he doesn’t show that part ) that’s to take off the whole assembly, there is a video showing how to do it on here

My Honda accord steering wheel is locked but the key turns and car starts. What do you think the issue is? Thanks.

Hello Loved your video. Gives me hope. My issue is that the key is completely stuck. Meaning I can't get it to turn enough for it to come out!! Do you think it'll work? My other question is, is it possible to get the switch to just turn with any key? I know I still have to use the original key, but I don't want to go through this again. Thanks!

Would this work on a 2001 Honda crv

My question is wen the car is on position, can you take the key or it stay stock in place

The keys from this era wear faster than tumblers. Get a new key cut at dealer and watch it turn; sounds odd but worked for me and way faster.

Worked great for me except when i woke up my car was gone just broken glass was all thats left 🤬

My boyfriend took the ignition cylinder out and then i took the cylinder to a locksmith who removed all but one of the wafers and then gave it back to me and we reinstalled it. The locksmith only charged me $50! Didnt have to reprogram anything. The removal of wafers does make things easier for any potential theives, but where i live and drive its very low risk of a car being stolen. Just saying if you dont feel comfortable with this repair, if you can get the cylinder removed yourself, itd still ve well worth it to do so as the locksmith was cheap, ive had no issues with it whatsover since it happened 5 years ago.

The water fits into the grooves of your key, but sometimes when they get old they get stuck in the Outward Position which makes it not possible to turn your key in the ignition

It’s also the same part for 2005 Civic.

So to confirm, the wafers really don’t do shit so long as I don’t want it stolen, say parked in a and neighborhood with the hood and doors open with my keys on the roof? Cause that’s really my next goto. Next question would be what if I did this worked till I put back in the cylinder and can’t seem to get it all lined up right now. Still no green. Blinky so transponders doing it’s thing I did maybe sorta try to hack it too get it him( held lock cyclinder with skinny tie over wheel lock.. yeah that shit did NOT WORK! But leaving back on a real note. Any good videos explaining how the keys are mapped mine was only 1-Fuloor 😮😢

I have the same problem, key turning inside the cylinder but when I put it back in the house against the spring it wouldn't turn. But however there is a metal button in the half circle space if you engage it while the cylinder is in the you unlock the steering wheel 😊

I'm frustrated. I went through all the steps and removed the one wafer that was stuck. I actually ended up taking out all of the wafers because I want no future problems. I put it all back together and it worked! the ignition turned and I test drove the car. Well now it won't turn again. It's definitely not another wafer because they're all gone. its what's it connects to internally that won't turn and I'm totally stumped. Of course a whole new assembly will fix my problem. But I just can't believe that it worked, and then 10 minutes later a different problem occured? blows my mind

probably the spring that goes into the housing, the big spring in back- it all has to line up when you reinsert it
