- This is an unedited, start to finish video showing how simple it is to replace the ignition key switch.
I think all DIY videos should be this detailed.

Very helpful - took me several tries over a few days to finally get my key to turn in the lock to the ACC position and as soon as I did I moved the car and disconnected the battery and pulled the ignition out as I watched your video - nice job! Thank you!
Glad it helped
Thanks a lot..that was easy after watching your video..an it cost me only 45 dollars..after 3 hours trying to turn the key
Glad it helped
wow thought i would need a dealer to get the key paired to ecu or something, thanks for this video!
Glad I could help!
you're a life saver I didn't know was that easy (after seeing how do it)!
Appreciate the video. This helped alot 👍
Glad it helped
I'm here after spending 45 minutes at a gas station trying to get the key to turn in my beater. I was literally googling tow trucks when I gave it one last try and it finally turned.
This was me last night. It turned so now I’m doing this lol

Glad we could help!

Mine was stuck too, apply generous amount of WD40, and keep trying after sometime I noticed the key was moving a bit and at once I was able to turn it to ACC
Recently purchased this model, do you have to lightly push the key in while turning to start it? It says push on the switch, so I'm assuming you do? Just asking cause every other car I've owned you can stick it in, flip it right over without having to lightly push the key while turning
did the new key work without a locksmith coordinating with Hyundai?
Yes. There is no special programming needed.
Great job, where did you buy the lock? Thanks!
I purchased it from O'Reilly Auto
Didn't you have to push in a pin to get it out?
Yes there’s a pin on the left side. I used the short end of an Allen wrench to push it in and then the entire ignition slid right out.
When you replace the ignition key switch does it need to reprogram?
No. The new keys do not have chips. No progrmming needed.
Do you need an ignition by kia. L have a 2008 Santa Fe i have to undo cable to battery. Or it will go dead. Key will not go to lock. But car will start
You can use any part that your local parts store has. It does not have to be a KIA part.
What if u have a broken key in there stuck in the lock position? (The key did not go to the car idiot broke wrong key in the ignition)
Man I thought this video was all keys lost. Everybody knows this
I lost the old key. Can I switch it without the old keys? Please say yes!
You need the old key in order to remove the key switch.
Are you able to pop it out without it being in acc
No. It must be in ACC or the release button won't push in. I haven't researched what to do if the key has been lost.
@@RCKHUGrAdventures okay appreciate you and I think to get another Otombler or whatever the Key ignitionn is called bc it comes with another key correct? If so you would just have to get the new key programmed
The one I got came with 2 keys. For the 2007, the keys are not electronic so they do not need programmed.
I have mine taken apart but the key won’t turn on the new one. It needs to be on acc but is stuck on lock. Help!
@@murcistanfoe6036 no, he just added to the sea of people doing this SAME fix. When I find how to do it WITHOUT turning it to run, Im gonna post it my DANG self...
Trying to replace my gf Hyundai Tuscon.
my keyhole is jammed and I cannot select ACC to release key pod; any answers??
If you can't put a key in the lock and it won't turn, the only thing I know to do is drill out the keyhole. It doesn't sound fun but will work.
@@RCKHUGrAdventureswhat sized drill you used, or it doesn’t matter?
What if I can't put it in the acc position??? It's stuck on lock
I haven't found a way around having to put it in the ACC position. Fortunately, after much effort and trying, I was able to finally get it to move.
YET ANOTHER useless video about "turning it to the on position" YOU ALREADY SAW there were a ton of videos showing that... WHY add to it? many people cant turn to the "on position AT ALL. hence the need to replace it. Not ONE video on that.
Mine is stuck locked so how the hell do I get it out
There have been comments about using WD40 or some other lubricator down where the key goes. When mine went out, my son was able to move the key around, up and down and get it just right to where it would turn. Others have said that you have to remove the entire assembly from the car and punch out the pin with a punch and hammer. I was lucky and got the key to twist.
Too much info, nones of any help. Thx tho
We're sorry you didn't find this helpful. We have had much positive feedback about this video.
So I am trying to do mine but it is frozen. The key does not turn at all so I can not put it in run at all
Did you figure it out? Same issue with mine--key stuck in "lock" position...
@@freeltamon7208 yeah have to pull it out and use a punch and hammer to bust that little pin out
What do you mean ? My car is doing the same thing rn 😫😫🙏🙏
@@ashleyd4589 I just figured mine out--I did a couple rounds of wd40, then shaking/turning steering wheel (low to medium aggression), while jostling key....eventually it worked itself free. The problem will persist if, after getting it started, you don't add MORE wd40 in the mechanism while turning key on/off, on/off. The fix works but even with mine, I think it's just time to replace key lock cylinder. Even if I don't do that soon, at least I know what the problem is .... Good luck!!
Edit: mind you, I went back to the car up to 4 times before the wd40 settled into the problem area. Even then it was ahassle--but this "hack" works
Could try tapping the lock cylinder while applying light pressure to the key. Sometimes the little pieces get stuck and a little vibration may help get things moving
I have mine taken apart but the key won’t turn on the new one. It needs to be on acc but is stuck on lock. Help!

@@freeltamon7208 I ended up returning it for another one.
I installed this today. I finally got the old one to turn to ACC and then I removed it. I turned the new one to ACC and installed it.
Problem is I now can’t turn the new one to ON or RUN (which I could do no problem before I installed it) and now that the old one is out, I can turn the old one no problem from OFF to ACC to ON to everything. Apparently this was NOT the problem piece. 😠
There is also a white plastic piece on the backside of the ignition column that I’m going to look around in that space first just to see if I see something broken or obviously wrong. Otherwise I’ll try replacing that white plastic piece next. 😢
