Highly Informative
This is literally one of the best shot car videos i have ever watched on this platform. Heck of a job! Made my Chilton manual obsolete for this part replacement lol
+PowerthrustUSA Thanks for the feedback! 1aau.to/m/Shop-TRQ
This guy always shows the little details that are extremely helpful. Thank You for the excellent directions, you made it so much easier for me to complete this task! A+ rating
Great video! Easy to follow with no extra madness. 😂. The only thing I would add is some text instructing to re-disconnect the battery after you made sure the truck started which, you, obviously did and I didn’t 😂). So when it came time to do the faceplate and I turned the key to put the gearshift all the way down, the power came on! 😂
One of the best easily explained, awesomely demonstrated automotive videos I've seen.
You can do it way quicker if you don't pull all those panels off.
I need to do mine and now I know what to expect. Thank you!
I just checked my truck, and you can pull both steering wheel panels without pulling the big panel underneath..
Great video! After spending weeks trying to track down what was causing my e brake and abs lights to stay on, my blower fan to stop working and a DTC message of 'service 4x4, I finally figured out that this switch is the problem. TRQ comes through with another excellent video to help idiots like me get the job done. Thank you, thank you, thank you! You make it look easy.
I agree...this is, by far, the best ignition switch replacement video for the silverado! Thanks!
Thank you I was prepared to change it out complete (lots more work) . Thanks for demo. definitely a lot easier to do the switch. Now it all makes sense Why mine was acting up. Sometimes it was stuck in accessory. after shutting off vehicle, then acting like its not in park.
Thank you for the video. This is by far one of the best videos on the ignition switch replacement! And you explained it very calm and clear as well. I'm sure this will help a lot of people.
Thank you for the video post. Great Job! Well filmed and narrated. You guys just got a new customer.
Best video on this installation .........better then the instructions that came with the PART !!! Thanks TRQ

THANK YOU! Your video saved Me today. Christmas day 2022!
Wow what a great video I appreciate it and I have the message Center light code on and off to say security lighti. Hope that's the problem that I have no idea what's going on with this truck?
Great video. Explained just enough. Was able to go to the parts I had an issue with instantly. 5 stars!! I will look for your video's in the future for other stuff. 😀
Great video thanks for giving me the confidence to tackle this myself
My 2003 C1500 has an xtra connector on top ignition cylinder that needs to be released to provide slack to get ignition switch out. It has green/brown wires to it and having difficulty get the white tab to release
Thanks for this video. Was helpful getting one in my 2004 gmc sierra
Thank you sir for the video very informative. Now I know what to do.

Do you guys sell for 2002 Chevy Silverado 1500 model . ? I can’t find just that piece anywhere just for other models
Awesome video!
Good job
Is there a video where you show how to replace the key ignition cylinder for an 03 silverado?
What were the symptoms that warranted replacing this? Forgot to mention that. I have a 2006 Silverado that clicks once and all power is lost to the truck. Not even the hazards will come on after that. Wait a while and it'll come back and when you try to start it, you get one click from the starter again and all the power is lost again. Is this the ignition switch?
Howdy,I have the same problem w/ my 2007 chev, silverado-but I didn't see a reply fromTRQ.,^^^^^^^^^^^^
Just now my blower motor went out, and abs and parking brake light are on now too. I think it might be the ignition switch but still unsure.
Did you figure out what the problem was ? TIA
Andre, I'm having the same issue, blower motor cuts in and out, brake and ABS light are on and service 4wd drive is on. Did it and up being the ignition switch?
@@derekastle3044 I have an 03 suburban with the rear cabin blower that does that intermittently not so much lately it mostly doesn't turn on anymore which is another of the lessor issues but why do you think your ignition starter switch is going out? Have you checked your grounds?
I just replaced my switch on my 02 Silverado. Everything kinda went well, but I do notice the key not being as smooth as the OEM ignition switch. It spring back and does the correct functions it just feels notchy. Could 1 tooth being off cause this?
How re align gear on trailblazer 2002 ignition switch replaced already? How I can check it to double check I did right?
My 02 1500HD just started to not spring back when the key goes into the crank position. From what I’ve read so far the switch box that you pulled out is the culprit. I guess the teeth you marked is what springs back?
I watched this video in hope to understand the issue I have. The key in a 2006 Silverado intermittingly binds and doesn't allow it to rotate. I replaced it with budget kit and a different one that was suppose to be better. Both rotate better but do not start the truck. It runs for one second and shuts down. The truck is not equipped with PATS. Reinstall the old lock and key and it starts fine. What am I overlooking?
I was watching this video because I was replacing some other components up top...ignition cylinder housing and cylinder lock and thought it would be useful. I needed to remove the ignition switch. Either by ignorance because I didn't know better or just clumsy luck, I am sure I moved the cog and didn't have it marked. Now putting it back together I am having some issues with the key turning from run to crank which Im sure is mechanical meshing position issue. How do I fix this?
I replaced this switch the other day ,it worked for a couple days ,now it's back to not starting again
So, I recently did this for a 2006 Chevrolet Express 3500; the problem I had was multiple brake malfunctions lamps would intermittently illuminate with the engine on, and the HVAC does not blow any air through the air vents on any setting(s). After replacing the ignition switch I no longer have any brake system malfunctions, however, the HVAC system will now turn on when the key is in the OFF position, and will turn off when the key is in the ON position. 🤦♂️ Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated!
My 03 burb had the a/c go out and the blower in the rear cabin is intermittent but what made you decide to replace the ignition starter switch? Something definitely got switched up for the brakes to do that and wish I had a helpful answer for you yikes. Lmk ty
Is this the same for like a Silverado HD?
No need to remove the knee panel or unplug the wires above the lock cylinder. Other than that, nice tutorial.
thanks , i got my verical back on the road
My truck won't turn off, it's a 2006 6.6 duramax 2500hd. Would this fix the issue? And sometimes it'll start but immediately die.
Did you fix it?
Think I have to do this.
I replaced my ignition switch and cylinder, now I have a service theft deterrent system on the dash. 08 silverado
Thanks
The wiring a. And the plastic white plugthing what is that and show how steering wheel gear shifter is what position and what happens if not the the gear
Great informative video!
So there isn't a need to reprogram the keys? I have a shop right now wanting $350 to do this, and part of that is because they need to reprogram 2 new keys. I can replace this myself easily, but I nothing about programming.
Will this fix my problem? When I go to start it. It doesn’t make any noise whatsoever. I have to keep trying to turn it on until it does.
If all else are working, such as the headlamps et al but just no crank, be sure to check the 10A crank fuse in the fuse center on the far left side of the dash.
If cogs are off will truck run?
What if you don’t have a reference point or the original part to line up?
so what is the cause to replace this ignition part
Es lo mismo con un silverado transmisión estándar?
How to get a stuck key out of the switch
Has anyone had an issue where it only occasionally won’t start? Sometimes I turn the key to the start position and nothing happens aside from the typical stuff the dash cluster does when you crank the truck. This is random. It always eventually starts. I wonder if this may be the culprit but I have also read that the wires in the steering column are known to get broken. Has anyone found the wires to be the real issue?
What did u find out mine does the same thing
I have had the same problem, It look like out of battery, but I'll do couple tricks and start back up. Also, will work if jump wires
@@armandocenteno3933 pcm
I would check the little security wire that goes over the top of the key cylinder. It is known to get loose and intermittently cause these issues
Why did you put the original switch back on when u turned it on it doesn't have the replacement switch that you had put on since you can see on the video the new part has a white stick and when u turn it on it doesn't have the stick so why did you put the original one back on ?
I changed my out and my crank or start
I did the same thing as you but my anti theft light won't GO AWAY PLEASE HELP
Will it start and run? My anti theft is on, shop is telling me it's $350 for ignition switch (I can do myself) but I don't want anti theft locking me out of starting and running.
Why did he take the panel off the fuse box?
What are the symptoms of a bad ignition switch? I just installed a new battery and when I go to start the truck there are no dash or ignition lights at all. All the fuses in the engine compartment fuse box check out ok. ???
Hi I am having the same issue did you ever find out what it was? It would help me out alot😃
I replaced it but now my anti theft light won’t go away. Help
rsalas921 same here and can’t figure out how to get it off...any luck?
So I just replaced my ignition switch and it still won’t turn over… HELP
My key won’t turn
You really don’t need to pull all those panels off lol
What are the common issues you encounter when this switch goes bad, I have an 04 Chevy tahoe which cuts power all of a sudden when I first start it some times, it throws of the timer in my radio and messes up my idle rpm’s to the point the car just dies if I don’t hold the gas pedal
Kind of have similar symptoms, I'm finding the same thing
was he saying beericle or vehicle
My ignition switch isn't the same:/
It doesn't unplug like that @3:30
I'm probably gonna have to replace the whole thing-wiring and all
I can't find a good video on how to do it, it seems like there's so much plugged into the wiring harness
That is about the same setup inside my 2006 Chevy silverado 1500 crew cab. I was having a problem when I was driving to work last week and the engine completely die and wouldn't crank back up.
Well I finally got towed back to my apartment and on Friday brought a code reader and checked the check engine light and had the P0335 code come up for the crankshaft position sensor and I changed it out and rehooked all my wiring back and didn't have any crank. Then undo the wiring again and had my alternator and starter tested and those passed good. My battery was also good since it was brand new.
I also checked the minifuses in the engine fuse center and I replaced the relay for the starter relay as well as the relay for the crank. And I still have no start.
And another note, I also checked the fuel pump and went ahead and changed out under its warranty.
I have fuel and crank but no start. Any suggestions that might be my ignition starter switch could be bad and making it harder the start my truck?
Dam I have. 06 Silverado crew cab new battery new alternator new starter not rebuilt new I had that switch even after it tested good I don’t know why some days it starts and other days it just takes a few try’s or came back 10 min later and starts like no problem
Check all your grounds to engine to body especially one by the fog lights also just run 10 g wire ground from battery to body
I lost my key
that aint the ignition starter switch, that's just the wiring to it. where's the actual starter switch that looks like a shoe box? I have yet to find a video that shows how to replace it.
People removing the negative side does nothing but leave the potential for arching and starting a fire you should always disconnect the positive side first ..and connect it first
