Actually not a bad video but some comments would have helped, like wrench sizes and such, and maybe holding some of those tools up to the camera so we can see what you are using. For instance what did you use to stick in the ignition to release it from the column? Someone said a paperclip would work. It looked like an ice pick or something similar.
I managed to get everything off to see that small plastic part with some contacts sitting over the torx screw for cylinder. Looks like you just pulled it out. Kinda' you'd of said something about it. But I know how you can forget your on camera when your working. Thanks for the video.
Okay what size Allen did you use at the end what size wrench did you use on the puller most of the time what size Allen did you use in the beginning to get the steering wheel off and at 3:39 of the video you start using what looks like a flat head to push like 3 or 4 spring loaded things in to get past that part what was that you where doing? Other wise all self explanatory. Thanks
I replaced my ignition switch with no problem, till I got ready to put it back together,... pain in the ads high beam switch couldn't get it right ...... Do you have a video on how to put it back together
Ray Harris Jr Look up scottys detailing on here he has a really good video on the keylock cylinder. Or go to Full size chevy.com forum and look up keylock cylinder. Its a great read with pictures and information. piece of cake man.
Hold up why did he take all the screws off the steering wheel and separate that you don't have to take the steering wheel off to get that metal bolt out
Fuckin great. Very short and to the point. I’m more experienced but once you figure out what size torx bit you need, and get a good steering wheel and lock cylinder pulling kit it’s a breeze. Rent that from your local auto store. Sometimes it’s free, sometimes you make a deposit you get back.
+Daxx Green Ummm yep. I would have loved a little explaining as he went. The funny thing is that I got a big box of tools from a neighbor that passed years ago and I have one of those chicken foot looking tools that he used early on and I never knew what it could be used for! Thank for the video Ryan Hamilton, it will help.
I wish that I had seen this video a few years ago. I actually stopped driving an older 1992 Blazer around 2008 due to this same ignition key problem. The shop wanted nearly $1,000 to fix it, which was more then the retail value of the car at that time. That car is still parked at my place, but I doubt it would start at all today since it has been sitting so long.
Everyday GM I’ll give it a shot this week. Already bought the cylinder but if I can save myself this aggravating task, why not? Thank you for your input; I’ll let you know how it went.
+Fernando Mendez its about the time and tools to pull it. l have an 89 sliverado and key broke off. l was able to get it out but no spare. locksmith would be in and out in about 30 minutes... let me think about that one... Have a good day
+Fernando Mendez lm a property manager of a truck lot and warehouse. lts called PRIORITIES... lol. can pay someone to do it, thats what mechanics are for... excuses... lol.. now your begining to sound like my wife, haha
Thanks buddy . Had to remove ignition in my 91 Chevy van . It's different but gave good enough of an idea to get it done.
no help at all. you never explained anything and was to far away to see what was going on
Wahhh
This video should have been titled "Watch me replace a 91 Chevy ignition"

Excellent video. I feel ready to tackle my 94 Suburban which has the same problem.

That is an ignition lock. A search said ignition switch (what I am looking for) and the title here is ignition. What a mess.
😹

YESSSS. This is perfect. I will figure the rest out.
if the key is worn down try cutting a new key by code before replacing the ignition cylinder.
Spoken like a smith. However, neither of us were there. Maybe he suggested it but customer insisted on new. You never know.
For a better video, you talking will make a world of difference.
You need to add an audio track narrating what you are doing. I have the exact same car and this video was useless.
Ryan... do you know where to locate the Turn Signal Flasher in the 91 S10 Blazer 4.3L 4X4?
Could you explain why when I put together and turn key the pin won’t engage ?
Bad design. Way too much work
Thank you! I fixed mine by watching your video.
That is the keyway or lock-cylinder not the ignition switch.
First off you shouldn't be working for a locksmith if u think that's an ignition switch. That is a lock cylinder
Beautiful words man
Key ignition lock , key lock cylinder just about the same shit.
Dont show enouth going to fast not enough detells
What are those two tools
What is normal cost for this job
Can anyone tell me what the button below the lighter is
Did you figure it out yet? I’m trying to find out what the button by the fuse lid is....
Luis Sonoma no I haven’t my truck is a 91 s10 and has it and I don’t want to press it unless I know what it is
Tennessee Dipper00 I pressed it and nothing happened. If it’s down there I’m assuming it’s foot activated...🤷🏿♂️
Luis Sonoma I’m taking about the black button below the cigarette lighter next to the radio
Tennessee Dipper00 Oh, I don’t think I have one there.

Very informative, you're a very skilled mechanic, commentary would have made this vid top notch! Talk to me, I learn better that way😁
What size socket do you need 2 take it off
I remember the day when you would just insert a unfolded paper clip and insert it into a hole, put your key into it and it would slid out.
Hold up why did he take all the screws off the steering wheel and separate that you don't have to take the steering wheel off to get that metal bolt out
Really

No one ever show when you take next column off how do you reset the key on that stupid rod with teeth.???
who makes the replacement ignition switch
Ac Delco
anyone know the name of the 2nd tool he used after the steering wheel was off?
Lock Plate Removing Tool
Thanks
Great video. Some narration would be useful for us dopey newbies.

Looks like a nightmare... I'll just keep using a screwdriver

You should have checked around a bit a locksmith did mine for $130.
Do you still have it?
What a PITA...so much BS to take apart.
If you won't bother to aim the camera better and more direct while working, don't post
How to do a 94
How to change the ignition on a 94

Okay
Chevrolet home motors here charges I think 50 for a new key. Call,give em your vin and tadahhh.

@@luissonoma6255 something along those lines. I did it a while back with a 84 c10 just go show i.d and registration

This is NOT a 91
92?
Perfect video.
Damn gmc
Lol
You need a lot of shit to get wheel off
Nop time wasted 🤨
$100 and can have a locksmith come cut a new key.
100 dollars or a $20-$40 part with 2 set of keys let me think about that.
