Ignition cylinder removal
2 Answers
Sure thing. I'm not sure if I've ever attempted it with the steering wheel on but if you have a 21mm socket and a 3" extension, take the nut out. Then bang hard on the steering wheel at 3, 9, 3, 9, then rock (don't pull with both hands) but rock the steering wheel side to side and then as it loosens you can pull it right off. There are like 3-4 screws for the shrouds, pop them off. Then one screw in the back of the cylinder for the actual switch. The lock cylinder is held on by two twist off (already gone) security bolts. So there is a round flat head. A screwdriver at an angle and a hammer with a firm hit, make an indent, then tilt it so it grips as you hit. Repeat about 3-4 times around the head until it's easy to remove. You can do this in a couple minutes if you get a good rhythm going. You can take those bolts to a hardware store and get some hex head allen or metric bolt to replace. If you need anymore help, lmk, good luck
oh and the key buzzer is soldered on.. so if you have to replace it.. you're just going to have to break them off. Definitely tape them though because it's got 12v to one of them.
