Key would not turn in my 2004 Honda Pilot. The ignition was sticking, and it turned out it was the wafers in the locking cylinder. I was able to fix it myself - saved me $300-$650 or more. In this video I show and explain the process.

@@penniwashburn4492 You mean $129, according to when I looked at it. Or are you including labor at a shop, too?
@@penniwashburn4492 just the cylinder, not the whole assembly...it's $15
Update: tiny black cotter pins! One on the bottom of the tumbler that if you just pinch the tip of the cylinder with a pair of channel locks and jimmy it until it will fall out. Then theres another one that actually releases the cylinder from the tumbler itself. That one is harder to get out but i got it with a tiny cylindrical piece of metai had that was a little smaller in diameter, gently set it on top of the cotter pin, and used a small flat head screw driver to pry off rhe cylinder to push it out, took the wafers out, re assembly, and wahlah!!!! Shazam baby!!! Thank you so much for your insight and help! And also with the faith i was praying the whole time!!!
Glad it worked!
I appreciate your making this video. Along with one other one I was able to get the core out and take the bad pin out. Thank you for the instructions and I want to also appreciate the faith you and your family showed praying that you could get it started while away from home. Thats awesome!
You're welcome! Glad it helped. This seems to be a common problem.
Omg Thank u so much for this video I'm homeless living in my Odyssey & had this happen in a parking lot & was stranded,it took me about 4 hours in the heat but this worked & I removed all the wafers tho,this was a dealer only part for around $300 but it only cost me 4 hours of my time! Thank u so much!
Glad it helped!
Were you're from ?
I pulled all the wafer from the cylinder and put it all back together. And nothing happened. It's like I missed a step somewherw maybe. ?
@kristinfranklin5911 you mean it still won’t turn?
Man, thank you, I really appreciated this video, my key jammed wouldn't turn, I found your video and everyone else was saying about removing them smoothed off bolts, I did exactly what you said, took all the teeth out of the tumbler, I had it put back together and BOOM car started. You are a absolute legend. Thanks mate.
You’re welcome, glad it helped!
Thank you for making this, my wife and I tackled this project yesterday and it went very well, your video made it possible. Much appreciated
Great to hear!
Thank you so much. I got stranded last night but luckily had someone pick me up and was able to fix it in a little over an hour of work with a Phillips, flathead, smaller Phillips, and hammer/nail
Glad the video helped!
Dude. You are a life-saver. Was stranded and found your video and for it done in just under 2 hours. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
I was able to pull this off in about an hour. Thank you so much.
So I spent my day doing this. I thought the wheel was locked but nothing would free it up. I didn't have the funds to buy a new ignition AND reprogramming new keys. So I took out the ignition cylinder and sure enough one of the wafers was sticking up. My only mistake was taking the key out and the wafers fell out. I had only planned to remove the one, but ended up having to remove them all. Thanks for this. Never in a million years would I have thought to do this. (Especially on drilling two holes into the ignition cylinder to get the roll pins out). Put it back together and it started up. Part of me is still in disbelief it worked.
You're welcome! So glad it worked for you!
By the way, when I first did this I just took out a few wafers. Then the same thing happened again a few months later, so I took them all out. Probably better to remove them all from the beginning. Only thing is, the key will now fall out while driving - but it's no issue.
The Quarter Acre Homestead if the key falls out while it’s running won’t it shut off?
@@Ferraridude13 Never had it happen, but I also didn't have a lot of attachments on my key ring to make it heavy and hang off the key itself (which the weight could pull it out). If you have the funds, you can have it repaired properly. Worked out well for me because about a month after I did this repair for free, a person lost control on the highway and slammed into me at 60mph and totaled my car. That would have been money down the drain.
dookiebot lucky you. I ended up doing the repair yesterday and the key doesn’t slide out on it’s own but I pulled it out by accident and nothing happened, as long as you don’t turn the ignition back to zero the car is unaffected.
Thanks for posting this video! I was about to spend way too much on my old 2003 Odyssey, and this "free" fix did the job great. I had some challenges getting the cylinder to slide out (it was really stuck for some reason), and the one (of four) gold screws was so difficult to reach (like you mentioned in the video) that I just broke the plastic arm connected to it... 3 other screws are plenty to hold the cover black apparatus in place. I also removed all of the pins. Works great now!
@dl6806 how did you get the cylinder to slide out? I’m having trouble with that
Glad it helped you!!!
Thanks For Your Video It Helped Me Fix The SAME PROBLEM AND I SEARCH EVERYWHERE A YEAR AGO AND COULDN’T FIND ANY VIDEO SUCH AS YOUR THANKS AGAIN MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!
You're welcome, glad it helped!
Thank you, Im about to attempt this in the morning on an 07 civic. She left me stranded for 6 hrs, no tools in the car. last time took about an hour of jiggling and I was on my way. This time we're going total war.
Felt that bro I was jiggling for about an hour and a half at a gas station before someone came with tools to do this
Just repaired mine today! Thank you for sharing this video!!!!! you helped a bunch! God bless you!!!
So glad to hear that!
Well done sir!!! If it wasn't for this video and my nephew's awesome skills it all saved the day!!!
Glad it helped!!
Thanks for the tutorial! It took me 3+ hours, but only because I had a very hard time getting the gold screw in the back out. If not for going back and forth trying to get that out, I probably would have been done in 1.5 hours or so. Appreciate the guidance!
How did u get the Ignition switch out mines won’t come out
Dude! You are a life saver! My car has been dead in the water for a few days now. 175k miles on it, I didn't feel like spending $1k to fix it. Took out the wafers and it worked like a charm! Thank you!
Fix mine from your video. That one screw took me forever to get loose. Saved me 5-6 hundred!!
That’s great to hear! Good job. How many hours did it take total? First time took me maybe five hours, then much faster when I did a friends and knew what I was doing.
Fantastic video, thank you bro, just saved me a ton of $$$. Up and running in 1.5 hrs...was able to get a dremel cutting wheel on top of those headless bolts and make a flathead groove.
That's great!!
Saved my family so much money. Thank you for the great video.
Glad it helped!
Thanks for your video. It was good to hear and read that it can work without this small pin inside the lock. My lock is so jammed so i hardly can get the key in, even then the lock is in pieces.
You unclip that right there, and then move that over there and see that right there.
Yep!
Wow! This video would have came in handy last month. 😭
Gracias a la buena explicación de este hombre puede arreglar mi carro y sin gastar ni un dólar, Dios te bendiga
This video straight up saved my ass!!! My wife daily’s the Pilot and this video really did save us, thank you!
Glad it helped you!
This video just saved me today!!! Thanks so much 👍

I just did the same thing, don't know why I watched this but I'm glad I did, I like you. You dun earned yourself another subscriber, thanks for trying to help others.
Glad it worked!
@@TheQuarterAcreHomestead unfortunately in my case, it didn't. The rod behind the cylinder was also jacked up so...I attacked this $8000-$10,000 car's ignition with a drill and a screw driver untill all the shit fell out that lol. As a result it won't go into wheel lock but he'll as long as it works, no one will know be me!... And you, and whomever else reads this. (I've also managed to lose the spring behind the ignition cylinder so I'm still screwed, but I'm theory... I FIXED IT! LOL)
Dude you just saved my ass with this video, many thanks.
Rock and roll we're back in business
Great!
I love the video thank you so much took all of them out run perfect. Thanks again. Daytona Beach Florida RV
This fixed my issue! Thank you!
That’s great! You’re welcome!
Thank you for this, just saved me a butt load of cash
Glad it helped!
Got it done works perfectly! I removed all the wafers/springs and it starts flawlessly. Thanks for the video...Only thing I had to figure out was removing the cotter pin to release the ignition column.
That's great! Glad the video was helpful.
The pin goes all the way through. I couldn't see mine because it was covered in grease. This video is great! Used along with several others to get it disassembled.
@@Lucky-qn9zx Glad to hear it!
How’d you get the pin out? I can’t get the pin out to release the column
@@miguelrivera7535 th-cam.com/video/CNYHcSEY3TY/w-d-xo.html
Hey thanks for the video it’s been really helpful I’m just having issues like you said on that last screw in the back, I can’t seem to get it to loosen. Do you have any tips or ideas for getting it out I feel have exaughsted all my ideas. Thanks again!
A leatherman tool works best, so you can turn the screw driver at 90 degrees.
You are a life saver, thank you so much for your video!
Glad it helped! Did you take out the chips on yours?
@@TheQuarterAcreHomestead where can I get the wafer pins for Hyundai i20??
Nice video. I did not know this style pulls right out with key. That little gold screw in the back is a pain...
Totally worked!!! Almost was calling a locksmith!!
Great!
Definitely helpful. I will try this with my 2006 Honda Pilot as it has a faulty ignition switch tumbler preventing the SUV from starting. Thank you very much for the tips/suggestions.
How did it turn out?
Any luck? Same car
Yes, watch the video and I explain the process!
Hell yeah thx for the tip my father's pilot is doing the same thing. Came out of Wally World aka - walmart it wouldn't start. So thx for the tip I will give it a shot. God Bless U an ur family.
Let us know how it goes!!
OMG, thank you so much. You save my life
Glad it helped!
Thank you for this video my brother. 👊👊👊
You're welcome!
Great help. Had the same experience, to include praying and it started, but need to fix for the future.
Great, let me know how it goes!
My Honda pilot 2003 started doing the exact same thing!!!
Finally got the ignition cylinder to come out for my 04 Pilot. There is a small black cotter pin on the backside closer to the dashboard above two screw holes. Helped me to just take the entire assembly off. Screwdriver and hammer to remove the two sheer bolts was easy for me.
That's great! Glad it worked.
Roll pin....
Before remove ignition thambler out do i have to remove some kind pin and what key position
My sheer bolts would not come out or turn on my ‘06 CRV. I found out that you can leave them alone and by unscrewing the plastic around the ignition cylinder you can access the pin. The pin holding the lock cylinder to the housing did not want to come out... I drilled 2 holes (one hole in front and one behind the pin) and when all else failed I used a grinder to grind down a pair of needle nose pliers to fit. After many attempts the pen finally was pulled free.
What I found out in the process is that you can drill one hole to the right of the pen toward the and then go ahead and drill another hole another hole to the right of that hole and slide remove the lock cylinder with the pen still in the cylinder. Makes it quick and easy. Reason being is that you do not need to use the pen when placing the lock cylinder back. As the cylinder will be held in with the plastic when the 4 screws are placed back and work perfectly... I bought a replacement lock cylinder (with 2 keys) off of Amazon for $18. It worked great. Before I used it, I tried the method in some videos of removing and pulling whatever pen was stuck in the out position and reusing the same cylinder. However I had no luck with that, at all. I’d say try that first cannot hurt, might have better luck.
Also I’d say if you can use a chisel or dremel and remove the sheer pens easily then go for it.
If you can drill one hole and remove the pin holding the lock cylinder, then try it.
Or you can just not fool with any of that drill the holes needed to slide the cylinder out and fix or replace the cylinder and slide it all back in, try the key and then replace the plastic and go on with your day. (At least this is my experience with my CRV). I thought I needed the locking pen (so I took extra time to remove it (just in case), but when I was able to replace the cylinder without reinstalling and have everything work perfectly fine (as if it was installed) I wanted to spread the word.
Lastly always best to disconnect the negative battery terminal as you do not want to trigger the airbag by pulling out a connector. Peace. :)
Great video…. Working on a 2005 Honda Odyssey, I followed all the steps… you forgot to mention the place pin holding the ignition in place. I did everything exactly how you show it and the key turned and the wheel unlock but it became locked again after I started to hook everything back up, and now I can’t get the ignition to turn over again. I’ll appreciate your help thank u you.
I know I am really late but did you figure anything out regarding the place pin?
My 2 cents!!!!!!! 1st I want to thank U for this video!!!!!! My story is my 2005 surburban went in the shop the Monday after Christmas. Still waiting for it now smh I have a 2000 Acura tl. Everything was fine until Thursday night I believe it was, my fiancé said the ignition wouldn't turn over. Im thinking I'm going out to wiggle the steering wheel and start it up, nope not this time smh. I messed with it for 2 days still nothing so I found a video and it said the steering wheel lock assembly was bad so I took it off. I was happy to get it off because those 2 screws that hold the assembly to the steering wheel shaft is in an awkward spot and the video I saw the guy used a punch and a hammer to get it out smh I tried that!!! Fuck that get an extractor tool kit and a drill trust me!!!! I had both already so that was a blessing. Anyway I got it out and the bolts came out easier than I thought. So I have the whole assembly out and its Saturday 530pm and the dealership close at 6 and opened again Monday morning. Had to wait until Monday only to call the Honda dealership and Acura dealership for both of them to tell me the part is DISCONTINUED!!!!!! U know how I'm feeling now smh. So Im looking on amazon and ebay and Im not happy with the search bc on ebay they were all used and I didn't want to get a used part and go thru the same thing and on amazon the part number just wouldn't come up for the Acura. The video I saw was a few yrs old but damn this guy had a new part from the dealership smh. Anyway I found this video hold on no wait I called a lock smith Sat night he was talking about 270+ dollars and he acted like he couldn't understand what U was trying to get him to do which was break the lock cylinders. I got that from the comment section of that video. A guy did that but he said it was $100. But anyway they didn't come I called again yesterday and they said they would come around 4 its was 10am then smh so I found this video and I did exactly what U did and I did have a little screw fall out that was more like a pin its gold it has a head like a nail but the bottom part is not threaded and its not long maybe 3 or 4 centimeters if that but it fell out and I couldn't pin point exactly where it came from but its still on the table lol kinda like putting something together and still have screws left over lol whatever it didn't effect anything and I took all if the waffers tumblers or whatever they are ALL out!!!!! Put it back connected it to the car to see if it would turn over and it did. I felt like a master mechanic/ locksmith lol it felt good!!!! Then around 5 pm I get a call from the locksmith and I told him I was good I fixed it and he asked me what did I do and I told him and he said well U did all off the work good job. Thanks again for this video!!! I told my son God gave me hands to work with and a brain to understand all I have to do is put the effort in and this 13 yo son of mines said yea and he gave U a youtube video to look too!!!!! Lmao
Glad the video helped and you got it working!
Brooo wtfk 😂 I did this and worked with no issue 🔥 I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS VIDEO to anyone looking for this help
That's great!! Thanks for sharing.
Having this issue right now. Going to give this a shot before replacing the whole assembly
How did it go?
@@TheQuarterAcreHomestead awesome!! Pulled all the waffles out and good to go!!! Thank you
You're an ungreedy genius, thank you so very much for sharing your experience, you're one of the God send people, that the world needs. You deserved AAAAA. Peace out.
The key module I not coming out u said there's something extra to detach in order to pull it out but what is that exactly.
great job . thanks for all the info.
Glad it was helpful!
Immensely helpful thank you
Glad it helped!
You rock!!! Thank you! I'm going to go try this right now. Even if I want to put it back to new at least I'll be able to drive it to the locksmith instead of getting it towed.
Just got it done on my 07 Fit... 2:45, but at least 1 hr of that was spent staring at the parts to understand how it works (satisfying my OCD urges👀). Really not a tough job at all. I live 3 hrs from a dealership, 1.5 hrs to the nearest locksmith, so this saved me a huge pile of hassle! Thanks again for the inspiration!!!
@andymurray8007 glad it Worked!!
Great video but I'll add this.. The only split wafer that should be removed or replaced is the one that was sticking out of the plug. I think the locksmith meant to remove the wafers, BUT then to replace them with new ones. Since one is worn out or damaged, others might start to do the same. The pins (in this case split wafers) in a lock, are what hold the key in the cylinder when it is turned. I used to be a locksmith too.
It's those split wafers that are usually the problem. My daughter's car, driver side door lock also couldn't turn. One wafer was the problem. I only took out the wafer that was sticking out and left the others in.
Yes, you’re right. I tried only taking out the bad one the first time. But it only lasted a couple months and then happened again. So then I took them all out. But you’re right, the key can come out while it is running now.
Thanks for the video. Quick and easy fix. Funny I grew up with vehicles that the key could come out while it was running. So a little nostalgia.
Glad to hear it worked for you! Lots of people say the tumbler won't come out, and I'm not sure why it isn't working for them...
Hi. Helpful video. I have a question on removing the pins that is locking the tumbler. You mentioned on your video to use a nail to tap it out. How to do it right ? I tried but the nail is not moving it out. Appreciate for your help.
A small nail worked for me. You need something small enough to push the pin out but not get stuck in the hole.
@@TheQuarterAcreHomestead thanks for the fast reply. I am actually working on it now. Is there only one pin that goes through both sides?
@@lawrencel2544 yes, just one pin, it goes all the way through. Any luck?
@@TheQuarterAcreHomestead afraid not. For some reason the pin is so tight and i am afraid to tab it too hard.
@@lawrencel2544 wow, I don't know. Maybe you will need a new tumbler or switch if you can't get it out. Or take it to a locksmith. Maybe something like this: www.piloteers.org/threads/2003-pilot-ignition-switch-problem-solution.27572/
Right next to the shifter there is a plug. Pop that off then there is a release button to move the shifter.
Thanks for tutorial! I followed the steps for my Odyssey, and the key turns outside of the car in the housing but once installed it won't turn. Would this be due to something in the ignition cylinder?
Hmm, I’m really not sure.
Some people having the same issue have mentioned some kind of antitheft lock mechanism inside the cilinder that might need to be pushed back before sliding the lock back in.
What goes in first the spring or the metal piece
I have everything up to where i pull yhe tumblers out but it wont come out. I tried using the key to help but no go. Mines a 2008 pilot
A few people in the comments here had the same issue. I would read thru the comments and see if someone posted the solution. Good luck!
How did the tumbler come out the video left that part out. I can’t get it out
👍You are awesome. GOD bless you.
Hi! I did this today on my 06 Ridgeline, by removing 1 wafer, but I also experienced problems when putting the ignition/sylinder back in. For some reason the key won't turn, and there are no lights coming on on the dashboard. Sadly, I cannot remove the pin again, since my tools broke while prying it out the first time. Did you ever figure out what the reason was, why the ignition wouldn't turn once you put it back in? I'm suspecting the steering wheel lock, but cannot say for sure.
It is possible to put the tumbler in upside down. Try taking the pin out (get new tools?) and flipping it over. I had to do that here in the video: th-cam.com/video/Gcb2muIbDzY/w-d-xo.html
@@TheQuarterAcreHomestead Hi, thanks for your reply. I got it out again. No, the tumbler is inserted just as it should. If you mean the brass colored thing on top of the cylinder housing. I've tried removing and inserting the key housing multiple times, but the key doesn't turn once it's inserted. Wiggeling the steering wheel makes no difference either. It's as if the car doesn't recognize the key anylonger. The dashboard lights are off, even if the key is inserted.
@@Aqollo I think it might be possible that your key needs to be reprogrammed, or maybe try switching the battery in the key fob.
@@JesusWins Hi! I figured out what it was. There's a lock mechanism on the inside of the lock assembly/housing, facing towards the steering column. Sometimes if the lock cylinder is pulled out a bit to fast, the lock in the column will activate. The only way to disengage it, is to remove the assembly and press the lock mechanism back inside. (If that makes any sense). It's an anti theft feature.
@@Aqollo Good evening. I am having the same problem. I have done everything in the video but can’t get the ignition to turn when I put it back in. Can you please explain where’s the lock mechanism is that you’re talking about. Thank you.
My previous question is referring to 8:10 time stamp of your video.
Thank you sir....
If the steering wheel is locked before disassembly, will that pose a problem?
That should be fine.
I know this is an old video, but hoping someone can help. I managed to get all the screws undone but can’t get the actual cylinder out. Any tips ?
Was your steering wheel lock position befor job
Yes.
I have everything apart but can’t get the tumbler to slide out of ignition assembly
My key won’t turn and my steering wheel is locked so can’t turn it neither. Would this be a steering lock issue or a tumbler issue?
That sounds like this key issue!
Did this. Turns independently but won't turn once I put it back into the assembly. Help 😥
This was a great video with fantastic advice that worked perfectly. I needed to remove 3 tumbler pins to get back to working order. The one screw was a bear to get to but thankfully just finger tight. Thanks!
Glad this helped you out!
I love how you told your family to pray n then the car started
Yes, praise God!
What if the ignition cylinder won’t slide out?
How do you unplug the green ones? I'm stuck.
I think there's a tab you have to squeeze to unlatch them.
I have a problem the pin that hold it in I drill close to pin now I’m srewed
Hi, i took off the black cover where the keys go in but the cylinder wont slide out, what am I missing?
Hi! Did you remove the two green plugs? th-cam.com/video/Gcb2muIbDzY/w-d-xo.html And then did you remove the gold screws and the transponder? th-cam.com/video/Gcb2muIbDzY/w-d-xo.html One all of that is out, then put your key into the ignition. The cylinder should slide out with the key in it. Let me know.
Mine won’t come out either on 04 Pilot. Removed the plugs, the screws the black immobilizer and transponder. Screwdriver, hammer nothing will get the cylinder to come out of the hole...hidden pin holding it?
@@mikeheinz3629 did you find a solution for this? I can’t get mine out either.
@@Juggenolla did you figure it out?
@@mikeheinz3629 did you figure it out?
My key won’t go in do you know what can be the problem
I know this is a bit older of a video. Can you explain how to release the lever for the top cover. I can't get my switch to push in or slide
I believe you pull the white lever down.
Just take the lock cylinder out by pulling the roll pins take the lock cylinder out pull the Fing wafers and tiny springs out put back together. Slapper all back together and never have this problem again. The transponder in the key is the trick to getting it to start anyway so why f with the stupid never ending failing wafers and the key that is constantly wearing.And yes The stearing wheel still locks when you turn it off and pull the key.You can take your key out while its running too which is very convient at times. I put one full rap of black electric tape at the end of the cuts on the key so that the key doesnt fall out of the lock easily. Just did this today and it works like a champ. Sorry locksmith's but this nightmare is BS AND I FOUND THE CURE. Save yourself a tow and 200 bucks buying new keys blah blah
I did everything as you did but I keep getting the immobilizer light on
2011 honda pilot pulled the black plastic off but cannot get the cylinder off help please!!!
Wouldn't a little lube or penetrating oil fix the problem that you had?
It did fir me for a while but eventually i havd to do this
Nice
How did you guys get the gold screws out!?? Wtf
A leatherman type tool works great. So the screwdriver can be at a 90 to the handle
Ok I’m going to attempt to do this ... my car just left me stranded thank U Jesus I was already home
Let me know how it goes!!
Did it work?
Did you get it fixed
It doesn't just come right. There is a roll pin that holds it in. You have to get the roll pin out first
My cylinder will not pull out. Anyone have any advice? 2004 Honda Pilot. Great video though. Think maybe I just need to keep wiggling the key until something lines up.
Hmm, I'm not sure. 2004 Honda Pilot is what I have, and it came out no problem.
@@TheQuarterAcreHomestead it has a retaining pin holding the cylinder in. Gonna drill it out. Thought it was just a hole until I cleaned dirt out of it & looked at with a flashlight.
@mitchphotoflix let me know how it goes. I guess someone had mine out before me!
@@mitchphotoflixcould you explain exactly where the pin is? I’m having the same issue.
It was a small retaining pin located near where the key goes in. It's on the side facing you between the cylinder and the "block of metal". You can't see it but i's in there. I had to use a screwdriver to pry it open enought for the cylinder to slide out without breaking the metal block. I left the pin in and had to smack the cylinder with my hand to get it to snap back in where the retaining pin could still hold it. Seems to be holding ok so far. I also removed all of the tumblers. The key is pretty loose but hasn't fallen out of the cylinder. The electronics in the key fob are still functional so no computer needed to reset anything. Hope this makes sense. Good luck.@@jbrennenkearney
What is this trick called?
Did your car turned on ? I don’t see it on your video
Yes, it did. Still driving it today!
Going to try this on my daughter's Pilot. $132 for new.
Did it work for you?
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
Oh wow, so sorry to hear that! Let us know what solution you come up with.
Did you make sure you took all the springs out that are under the wafers? I almost didnt, but lucky one popped out and then it reminded me as to make sure. I had a bit of trouble getting one out, could barely see it in there, but I thought wow if I wouldn't have taken time to make sure all the springs were out then it would have jammed it up again!
@@stephaniephibbs3701 Yes, I believe I did. Good idea though!
It doesn't just come right. There is a roll pin that holds it in. You have to get the roll pin out first
Where is it?

I took the cylinder to a locksmith he chraged me $150 im pretty sure I could have figured it out but needed to be back on the road fast.
You mean you took it all apart, and he charged $150 to fix just the cylinder? Did he make it so your key still works?
How about you show the video of where you pulled it out. I've tried everything and I can't get mine out. I'm stuck at a ski resort and my car hasn't moves in 2 days.
What type of car? I've heard some of them have an extra pin, which my Pilot did not have. Once I had those gold screws out and the black pastic piece off, it just slid right out.

@@TheQuarterAcreHomestead I didn’t ! I figured it out honestly lol, but broke some drill bits trying to , ended up Just having a new set of keys programmed
I need help!
My ignition switch still won’t come out I’m having a hard time getting it out
I did all this on my fg2 si and forgot to take the negative off the battery when unplugging everything.
Now when i remove the key the car thinks the key is still in the igntion and it isnt.
And the door locks no longer function with the green plug plugged in but when it isnt plugged in it, the remote doesnt work for keyless entry.
Idk wtf i did somebody help 😂
Oh no! Have you figured it out?
I did, on the transponder there is a piece of plastic that senses the key being put it and taken out.
When i had the switch taken apart i must have pressed that down somehow and it got stuck.
Not a big deal. I took the switch back apart and used an exacto knife to unstick it.
Now its unstuck, its spring loaded.
Everything works as it should.
