I have a 2002 chevy silverado and it was just like your avalanche. ..thanks for the vid!! I Couldn't of done it without it!! People like you make the world a better place.
Thanks for tip! i had a huge wrench and it allows just enough room to pick that retainer clip out. some old wheel bearing races and large washers and the steering wheel nut and you have yourself a spring compressor tool!
I was struggling with this project, watched lots of videos, as well as written instructions. Your video was the most helpful, by far! Also, instead of buying the GM adapter plate I just used my vise to squeeze the legs of the lock plate tool together. Worked great and I think it gave more working clearance than the plate would've. Thanks for the help!
If only I had seen your video earlier I broke that black cable didn't know it had to be in off position. Saw several videos but none explained how to remove it looked online but found nothing. Out of all the videos I've seen this man is the most detailed and you can't go wrong. I just had no luck finding this video before I broke a part. If your vehicle is stolen replace the hub and the cylinder switch if you do just one your likely to have both parks fail few months apart.
Dude... seriously awesome video!!! You have the only video I can find ON TH-cam showing how to "PROPERLY" get too and remove the mother lovin' Ignition switch/lock housing! Or any other component of the upper steering shaft in reality but I just wanted to comment and say, Very good video and very helpful as I just completed this exact same repair after watching your video and my tool/s arriving in the mail! Lol!! Good job, and thanks bro!
My ignition key cylinder was jammed into the housing so I bought a new ignition lock housing online. I went through all the steps to reinstall new ignition lock housing. The new housing has yellow plastic dummy key in it and we don't know how to release so a new ignition cylinder can be put in. Thank for your excellent video which we followed many times.
This video helped so much. I have an 01 tahoe that someone tried to steal and completed destroyed the part of the housing that the passlock is held in. Luckily the went too far and couldn't get away with the vehicle. But until i found this video i had no idea what the components were called. Thank you so much
Your video definitely is the best. Wish I had found it before TH-cam suggested it. It would have been incredibly helpful. That being said I still was able to complete my project. Hope others will find your video before hand.
Great job on explaining your video I had a GMC dealer install a clock spring in my 2005 Sierra service writer tryed to say passlock symbol was in my after market viper so I took it back to alarm installer showed me that everything on his end was properly working so I went back to the GMC dealer showed him it was his clock spring tech that didn't re-program system like you explained in your video (we all make mistakes but come on to try and say it was the alarm tech I sure didn't have the passlock symbol when I went there all n all dealer got it fixed 😉)at no extra charge ) Great Job on. Your passlock video !!!
Hey thanks for the informative video and love the way you record step by step. I personally would love to see more videos of Silverados in the 2003 era. Especially more geared towards anything electrical or more technical. Again thanks again. I have been looking for the right ignition switch tutorial and you nailed it!
this video is accurate and very helpful. BUT at the end the relearning procedure leaves out a detail. if you have any other lights ie (low washer fluid or low fuel) the security light will cycle. allow the lights to cycle before turning key to off position . do not turn off as soon as light goes off wait till it no longer comes back. i spent all day turning the key off as soon as the security light cut off
grate video .I've had this problem for 3 years so far .it comes and goes and I cant take it anymore . my mechanic told me that he knew the problem and said its common .so I had him change the key lock cylinder.Well he was wrong did not fix it $300 fix .So I had an aftermarket alarm with auto start ,that's when I think all my problems started.so after a while I had it removed.Still not sure that was it .All the wires were solderd together .so after a while of looking into all the you tube video's ,everyone said it was the plug up top with the 3 wire's loose fit ,so I did the wire tie thing and wedged it in and I cleand all contact's at that time to. Well that's not the fix .So my next move is to change the pass lock case with sensor. thanks for this video again it was helpful .I will repost after I replace case and sensor. ps would I be better to buy this online or go to dealer.thanks marc
Thanks josh, I picked on up off the Mac truck for $63, they told me it a dealer ship item only and they really aren't supposed to sell me that tool due to the lock plate and theft reason, I told them I took it off with out the tool, just having trouble getting steering wheel back on...
Excellent video. Walked me right through the process. Although some of your stuff came apart easier than mine but this video was very correctly done. Thank you 😊
Thanks for this, very helpful. I did it without a steering puller (mallet and some not-so-gentle persuasion) and without the adapter plate...not as easy for sure, but it works- - used a large adjustable wrench as plate and some old wheel bearing races and large washers as spacers.
Excellent!! I think just what I need to know to replace cylinder case and lock cylinder that was destroyed by theft that stole my 2003 Yukon. I would think this is common so recommend adding a TH-cam key word search of "theft" or "stolen" to help find this video.
I like the you teach its usefull it make it sense and most of all step by step procedure your gonna be a teacher someday and i like your video bro good luck and thank you very much
I had to replace a broken column on an 05 Tahoe and it wouldn’t start. The relearn procedure worked. Thanks a bunch! The security light now stays on when running. How do I reset that?
Thanks some one just wanted to still my truck in broke the housing passlock of my steering column in this video help me to replace the housing of ignition key...thanks!!! Excellent video..
Great video very well done Clear and to the point Thanks for posting it!!!👍👍👍😀😀😀 Where can I get the adapter plate for removing the lock plate? Thanks again
Awesome step by step instructions on executing this job. I am really appreciative of videos like these! Thank you very much for putting this info on here. Just awesome. I'm still having the symptom of the security feature being activated, like how you crank it over but it doesn't start. I changed housing and cylinder. Would a bad battery cause this also? Thanks for all your help
Might be good to rename this video something like "Chevrolet Truck Passlock fix instead of bypass" as there are tons of videos on bypassing the sensor. This is the only one I could find for repairing the problem. More people will find the video with the rename. I made a lock plate adapter with a 2x4 and a few wood boring drill bits. BTW - This is the same part for my 2004 Tahoe, so it applies to lots of trucks. Great video!
Very Helpful video. However, if you're not careful when pressing spring back down you can break the turn signal cancel cam and the wheel bearing that sits behind the spring. I broke both. It was a pain to get out the race part of the bearing. Had to cut it outwith a dremmal. When that bearing breaks the steering wheel wobbles all over the place. I should have made a video on relacing of bearing because thereis only one video on that replacement. Everyone has a video on loewer column bearing but nothing on upper column bearing.
Thank You so much for this video, it helped me understand how to replace my Hummer H2 Passlock Sensor to fix my No Start /Anti Theft issue! Just need that tool list.
Great video. Really helped. However, after I got everything back together and pass code set, I can't get the shift lever out of park. Also, the red warning light is off when running but comes on and stays on when turned off and key removed. I would appreciate any thoughts. Thanks
Do you have to remove the lock cylinder in order to pull the housing off? I'm working on a k15 right now and I can't get the lock cylinder out and the housing is broke. I'm hoping I can pull the entire housing off with the lock cylinder still in and put the new one in the new housing. Thank you!
Will this 30 min relearn work when you change the column cause the owner destroyed the case, cut wires. Got another column and just need to know if I can relearn it. Old school. Damn fine video!!! Thanks in advance. Just to let you know it worked! Thanks for the video and the help. Really appreciate it.
I know you did this video awhile back and it’s a great video! I was following it and when I went to get the key buzzer connector it fell apart. There’s the plastic connector pieces, a little copper thing I’m assuming the two wires connect to, a spring, and then the orange and the green wires. I can snap together the two plastic pieces but I don’t know how the things that fell out of it fit in it… can you help at all?
THE most important suggestion I have is; watch this video in it's entirety, BEFORE you start. Don't make the mistake of watching it for the first time as you do it. The re-assembly camera angles are sometimes better, at key points and you will see and understand better by watching them.
Great video great help but i have a question for you and hopefully you can help i had to remove the housing with the old cylinder attached to because i was mangled and would not come off due to a theft attempt so i do not know in what position it was and the new one won’t go in Thanks in advance
Please help! At 10:47 the thing he's "rotating to the off position", what is that called? I can't find information on this anywhere and I need to replace mine as when somebody drilled my cylinder out they damaged that part and I need to replace it but can't find the part anywhere!
Good video! I have a 2001 GMC Sierra I replaced my ignition switch case and did the relearn it worked ok for a couple of days. Three days later I came out of work into a snow storm at midnight and turned the key and the truck started ok but when when I put it in gear the security light came on and my headlights went out. I tried to make it do a relearn but the sucurity light just keeps flashing I left it turned on for an hour and it flashed the while time. I have a battery charger on it to keep the battery from getting drained.I used my ElmScan 5 code reader to clear what codes I could find just a couple of (lean mixture error codes) Any Ideas what else could be wrong with this truck I'm about to call a wrecker to come get it for scrap. in 3 weeks Iver been able to drive if for 2 days and it's cost me 140 to buy that new switch.
do i have to go through this process if my ignition cylinder is stuck on ACC?. Key comes out of cylinder. just stuck on acc my starter kept spinning. disconnected battery so it would die out. tried replacing cylinder... old one came out... new one didn't want to fit..(it is the correct cylinder)...Mybe because its stuck on ACC? need a little assistance PLEASE.
That retainer is worse going back on . I used my steering wheel puller had a couple bolts with nuts and spacers used the big nut that holds wheel and bang it was off , but what a pain make sure pin that’s behind is steering wheel lock is all the way in by unlocking the gear shifter
My key will only turn about 90 degrees...not quite to the Run position. I finally drilled out the key lock cylinder and got it removed. Removed ignition switch, it works fine. But a screwdriver used to turn the thing in the housing wont budge past 90 either!! Could this mean the gear in the housing might be bad somehow..? What might have happened?
Well, I ended up replacing the housing following this video step by step. Thanks man! This video was the bomb; made an anxiety filled job a piece of cake. Easier than most things I've done on this truck. Note that I have a '04 Silverado 2500HD and this video was spot on. Thanks again!
I have 00 silverado and the problem im having with it is that it sometimes starts but it wont keep running it stops right away is this a symptom of a bad ignition lock cylinder or is the case??
If out of know where my check engine light came on in my 2004 Avalanche took it to Auto shop Dlc is not working now? then 2 days later my Tranny started slipping I checked the fluid it was full and nice color.Then my abs and brake light is coming on and off.I Just spent 1200.00 to replace my Transfer case last Year warranty ran out of course but coud this be something beside bad trasmission? Thanks for any help you can give me.
+RicksRides1 Ebay. Kent Moore. Some auto part stores may even rent them out. Just google search the tool numbers. The plate tool number is Kent Moore J-42137. The lock plate compressor is J-23653.
Hi I really like you’re vídeo one cuestión I I did the same job but I was not able to put the steering wheel back on because that little special part you show on the video I look everywhere to buy one no day have it where did you ge it my 2005 Yukon still sitting in my garage can get it to run is just a mess need some help please
Grate video. there is a couple things you don't show or tell anyone about . So air bag. You have to pull air bag fuse and battery neg cable off.and to pop off air bag you have to turn steering wheel to the left and right .So you mite want to jack up the front of car just off the ground so you can turn the steering wheel then use a small screw driver to push in spring clips .each side of the air bag should pop ,if they don't your doing it wrong.get a lite and mirror to find the clips it took me less then a minute to remove air bag very easy.next thing that is not shown and im not sure exactly what you call it is on the back of the housing case ,is 2 plastic pieces make sure you know what position its in .a small pic is needed to take out the first plastic piece .Ok after you have it ready to install put in one screws snug. Put the key cylinder back in then to the off position ,put you ignition switch in and turn it to crank and make sure you key turns. sometime when you put the ignition switch back in it may be out a tooth don't panic its easy to figure it out .I had all the tools and some know how after I watched this video it helped me out a lot and the key relearn took 1 hour did not work the first time My fault .So if you have that Damm security lite on and sometimes your car don't start change the passlock sensor don't listen to the guy that said its the passlock plug on top of case
Hi I did it how you explained it. I got the ignition case in a junk yard and bought a new key cylinder but when I installed it, the key won't turn. What can I do to solve this?
+ramiro2699 Either they cylinder was coded incorrectly or the key is cut wrong. You will have to drill a hole in the case so you can depress the spring loaded tab within the case so it will slide out.
After compressing the spring and putting the locking c-ring back on, my steering column is now "wobbly". So when I put my steering wheel on, it can wobble around quite a bit. Any idea on what this could be? Thank you!
My 03 Silverado 1500 5.3 liter cranks but no start. Had the gas lines replaced with filter then the crankshaft sensor, the camshaft sensor, the PCM (was programed to vin), the driver window switch, and a relay. It has no five volt reference detected at PCM and no ignition pulse. Do you think it could be the passlock 2 sensor that comes with the cylinder case? This look the same but my security switch has the lock icon. My security switch does go out after a second and is not blinking. My key is crunchy but does crank after a wiggle. Steering wheel must come off to replace case with passlock 2 sensor, correct? What suggestions? Thanks, Richie
PLEASE HELP: I changed ignition housing with passlock sensor. great video. but now it wont work ive been driving it 2weeks i tried the relearn process but its not working?????? what can i do???
I have a 2000 Silverado 1500, I’ve changed the cylinder and housing and it still won’t start after the 3 10min relearn procedure. What else can it be? Do I have to do something with the new key that came with the new cylinder?
I have a 2002 2500hd and I cannot rotate the lock cylinder to the off position to pull the cable out. Maybe I need to get my slide hammer and try and pull it out. Any suggestions?
+rcastanaga The plate tool number is Kent Moore J-42137. The lock plate compressor is J-23653. An aftermarket compressor can be had for under $20 if you poke around online...or maybe even local auto parts store. The plate can probably be made out of 1/8 plate steel. Or if you know someone at a GM dealer you could try to borrow one.
+adrtorresgzz The only way to get the cylinder out without the key is to drill a hole in the case so you can depress the tab on the lock cylinder. Even then they are not fun to get out. May have to pay to get a key cut by the dealer by supplying them with your VIN and proof of ownership.
@@gmhow-to7583 I replaced my whole Ignition last month and I had my past lock reprogrammed I have all my information for owning the truck in a have the numbers from the new steering column can I take that into the DMGM dealership and get a keychain
so what was the vehicles problem that led you change this part? I have a trailblazer that starts and shuts off after 2 seconds. the car and lock icon blinks 3 times and goes off. I changed the switch but no help. You mentioned BYPASS Id rather do that, how is that done?
I have question may be u can help me I have 2006 chevy 3500 I have a ignition problem . I have to turn the key real hard to start do u think its the houseing of the ignition because I already change out the key switch and the key slat with a new key
My car has been sitting for 7 months and you just got it up and running!!!! You deserve an Emmy award lol
I have a 2002 chevy silverado and it was just like your avalanche. ..thanks for the vid!! I Couldn't of done it without it!! People like you make the world a better place.
markus alan schuster im in the same boat he was amazing
@@yourhomie1715 nnnnnn...
. It was on you
Excellent video. Thank you!
Pro tip: an adjustable wrench laid on its side works great as adapter plate for removing lock plate.
Thanks for tip! i had a huge wrench and it allows just enough room to pick that retainer clip out. some old wheel bearing races and large washers and the steering wheel nut and you have yourself a spring compressor tool!
This is by far the best video I've ever seen on removing all the GM components of air bag to switch housing, very accurate.
FYI for anyone else doing this: Chime sensor should be removed before removing the lock cylinder. Had me stumped.
Thanks for the video man.
What did you do to get it out? I’m stuck on it and don’t wanna force it out and risk breaking it.
Thanks for the heads up btw
I was struggling with this project, watched lots of videos, as well as written instructions. Your video was the most helpful, by far! Also, instead of buying the GM adapter plate I just used my vise to squeeze the legs of the lock plate tool together. Worked great and I think it gave more working clearance than the plate would've.

Have the same problem now 01 Silverado… how did it go replacing it? Where you get part?

Did any of you have to get it reprogramed
Your video definitely is the best. Wish I had found it before TH-cam suggested it. It would have been incredibly helpful. That being said I still was able to complete my project. Hope others will find your video before hand.
I did this on my 1999 GMC Sierra. Maybe put some other makes and years in the description and I would have found this.
Dude, you are the only guy who really show me how to get that nut away, a million thanks!
Got it working thanks had to take to dealership to program but saved lots of money changing pass lock myself Thanks again

That retainer is worse going back on . I used my steering wheel puller had a couple bolts with nuts and spacers used the big nut that holds wheel and bang it was off , but what a pain make sure pin that’s behind is steering wheel lock is all the way in by unlocking the gear shifter
This dude should work for NASA
My key will only turn about 90 degrees...not quite to the Run position. I finally drilled out the key lock cylinder and got it removed. Removed ignition switch, it works fine. But a screwdriver used to turn the thing in the housing wont budge past 90 either!! Could this mean the gear in the housing might be bad somehow..? What might have happened?
Well, I ended up replacing the housing following this video step by step. Thanks man! This video was the bomb; made an anxiety filled job a piece of cake. Easier than most things I've done on this truck. Note that I have a '04 Silverado 2500HD and this video was spot on. Thanks again!
Great video
Excellent job thanks 👍👍
Thank you so much for the detailed video. Definitely earned a like and sub.
Excellent. Good job.
Great video I'm about to do my 2003 Tahoe security light stay on an it's just cranking no start .

i'm working on a 2002 blazer keeps blowing ingnition fuse under hood i bought everything except housing should i replace that also
Thank you man this video really save me time and trouble great video thank you thank you thank you
Would the key buzzer wire keep it from cranking ???
I have 00 silverado and the problem im having with it is that it sometimes starts but it wont keep running it stops right away is this a symptom of a bad ignition lock cylinder or is the case??
El_Gafaz 🕶 it’s your case

Thanks for any help you can give me.
Where do u get the speciality tool?
+RicksRides1 Ebay. Kent Moore. Some auto part stores may even rent them out. Just google search the tool numbers. The plate tool number is Kent Moore J-42137. The lock plate compressor is J-23653.
I have a 2002 Chevy avalanche all my lights come on but it will not start at all I need help
Hi I really like you’re vídeo one cuestión I I did the same job but I was not able to put the steering wheel back on because that little special part you show on the video I look everywhere to buy one no day have it where did you ge it my 2005 Yukon still sitting in my garage can get it to run is just a mess need some help please
Grate video. there is a couple things you don't show or tell anyone about . So air bag. You have to pull air bag fuse and battery neg cable off.and to pop off air bag you have to turn steering wheel to the left and right .So you mite want to jack up the front of car just off the ground so you can turn the steering wheel then use a small screw driver to push in spring clips .each side of the air bag should pop ,if they don't your doing it wrong.get a lite and mirror to find the clips it took me less then a minute to remove air bag very easy.next thing that is not shown and im not sure exactly what you call it is on the back of the housing case ,is 2 plastic pieces make sure you know what position its in .a small pic is needed to take out the first plastic piece .Ok after you have it ready to install put in one screws snug. Put the key cylinder back in then to the off position ,put you ignition switch in and turn it to crank and make sure you key turns. sometime when you put the ignition switch back in it may be out a tooth don't panic its easy to figure it out .I had all the tools and some know how after I watched this video it helped me out a lot and the key relearn took 1 hour did not work the first time My fault .So if you have that Damm security lite on and sometimes your car don't start change the passlock sensor don't listen to the guy that said its the passlock plug on top of case
Hi
I did it how you explained it. I got the ignition case in a junk yard and bought a new key cylinder but when I installed it, the key won't turn. What can I do to solve this?
+ramiro2699 Either they cylinder was coded incorrectly or the key is cut wrong. You will have to drill a hole in the case so you can depress the spring loaded tab within the case so it will slide out.
I’m
After compressing the spring and putting the locking c-ring back on, my steering column is now "wobbly". So when I put my steering wheel on, it can wobble around quite a bit. Any idea on what this could be? Thank you!
It has two cut lines on the steering column make sure is all the way back on the second cut
My 03 Silverado 1500 5.3 liter cranks but no start. Had the gas lines replaced with filter then the crankshaft sensor, the camshaft sensor, the PCM (was programed to vin), the driver window switch, and a relay. It has no five volt reference detected at PCM and no ignition pulse. Do you think it could be the passlock 2 sensor that comes with the cylinder case? This look the same but my security switch has the lock icon. My security switch does go out after a second and is not blinking. My key is crunchy but does crank after a wiggle. Steering wheel must come off to replace case with passlock 2 sensor, correct? What suggestions? Thanks, Richie
I have it back together and need to put the key release cable back in. Will it go back in with the lock cylinder in already?
What are the chances a fuse was blown while someone tried to break it with a screw driver? I don’t have obd communication.
Can I replace sensor without remove the steering wheel
PLEASE HELP:
I changed ignition housing with passlock sensor. great video. but now it wont work ive been driving it 2weeks i tried the relearn process but its not working??????
what can i do???
What do u mean you are stiving it but what wont work?
I have a 2000 Silverado 1500, I’ve changed the cylinder and housing and it still won’t start after the 3 10min relearn procedure. What else can it be? Do I have to do something with the new key that came with the new cylinder?
I have a 2002 2500hd and I cannot rotate the lock cylinder to the off position to pull the cable out. Maybe I need to get my slide hammer and try and pull it out. Any suggestions?
I’m having a problem and I posted a video yesterday of it can you please look at it and let me know what you think I would appreciate it very much..
Looking for the spring plate part # if u have that information would be useful
When u replace the housing and sensor does ur replacement housing and sensor have to be a specific one or can u take one out of a parts car?
What kind of key machine is that how
Much Did you pay for it very nice video
I need that tool for the cancel cam whats is it called and can you only get it for GM?
+rcastanaga The plate tool number is Kent Moore J-42137. The lock plate compressor is J-23653. An aftermarket compressor can be had for under $20 if you poke around online...or maybe even local auto parts store. The plate can probably be made out of 1/8 plate steel. Or if you know someone at a GM dealer you could try to borrow one.
What if I need to replace the lock and don't have a key ? How can I turn it to the on position to get it out ??
+adrtorresgzz The only way to get the cylinder out without the key is to drill a hole in the case so you can depress the tab on the lock cylinder. Even then they are not fun to get out. May have to pay to get a key cut by the dealer by supplying them with your VIN and proof of ownership.
@@gmhow-to7583 I replaced my whole Ignition last month and I had my past lock reprogrammed I have all my information for owning the truck in a have the numbers from the new steering column can I take that into the DMGM dealership and get a keychain
On the video you use like special push plate where did you get it?
I have a question. If my key broke in the cylinder. Is there a way to still remove the cylinder without rotating and using the pick to pop it out?
so what was the vehicles problem that led you change this part? I have a trailblazer that starts and shuts off after 2 seconds. the car and lock icon blinks 3 times and goes off. I changed the switch but no help. You mentioned BYPASS Id rather do that, how is that done?
Dale Higgins Do you have any videos for changing same part on a 99 pontiac grandprix?
@@leegriggs265 yeah I'm sure he has a Pontiac in the driveway
@Lower Desert shut your mouth you miserable shit
@@lowerdesert9577 I love guys like you! Always have something to say. Why would u waste your time making a comment that has nothing to do with ya
@@leegriggs265 lmao 😆
Nice video
I have question may be u can help me I have 2006 chevy 3500 I have a ignition problem . I have to turn the key real hard to start do u think its the houseing of the ignition because I already change out the key switch and the key slat with a new key
