Thank you so much... Ford Explorer 1996 broken handler, it comes out with the allen quiet well!
I replaced mine in just 5 mins thanks for the help!
Great video! Thank you. Very helpful about the chip key.
Hey I want to thank you for this vid my igntion switch shatf snapped off luckiky at my shop so i had penty of tools and this helped me tremendously so Thank You!
Thanks man. You saved me hundreds with this video.
Thanks. Worked perfect pulling it out but I had to watch another video to put it back in.
What video did you watch to put it back in?
thanks for taking the time i rarely thank people bc im always in a hurry but this saved a lot of time
A spring-loaded thingy you poke in to release a part is called a "detent." It's one of the parts of an M16 that I used to have memorized when I was in the army.
"Detent" is correct! it's a standard English mechanical term. I wish more of these video guys who are often quite clever, would also learn and use the rules of correct nomenclature and then use the right terminology thereafter.
It lets others know that you have a clue or two. (Simplified- "use the right word.")
Can you please tell me how to remove the broken piece left inside when you remove the switch
Thank you so very much! This was so very helpful!
Thanks for the video bro!, I use the same procedure for a Ford 1999 eclipse e250 and works!!! Thanks
Thank you for helping me with my problem.
How do I get it out of I don't have the key anymore? I lost it
Thank you for this video it really help me out. I was doing a ford E 350 van your instructions were perfect and I’m grateful that I saw this video thanks man keep up the good work
Me too when mine broke today.
Thanks for the help.
I got the button pushed and can get some play but it is not fully released. Tried to lever it out and may have busted a bit the plastic cowling that the key enters first, and that prevents the shroud from being removed. I was way over-charged for replacing it and I wanted to verify that it had in fact been replaced. F250 2000
Thanks man!!
tnx for the vids i hope that key cylinder will also be available here in my country i got a ford explorer 2000 need to replace the key cylinder..
Pulling it must be pretty easy considering the number of taxi's I saw in Mexico where they're missing.
Thanks brother!
thanks , it work, I like it , stray to the point
I have a ford scape 2009 with the lose lock cylinder , I have to push it in and then turn to start my engine . would it be the same precedure ?
have a situation where i removed the key ignition cause when i went to start my 04 E250 van it skipped gears. So I took out ignition but the gear in the column needs to be put back to its original position.
how do i set that to the right setting for the keyed ignition to match up?
I tried several times but its not working
In your video you can see the green plastic bushing inside those are the parts I'm referring to
behind the plastic bushing is a metal like washer then the gear behind it, those parts are not in the right position how to i get it to the right position?
Also the lock tabs on the green bushing are broke do i go to the dealer for these parts or will it work the way it is?
will this work on an e250 van?
thanks a lot
You're the Man. Thanks for the lesson.
Lawence Barnaby np, thanks for watching. cheers
+DIY Auto Repair Videos hi thanks fo that tell me I need first take out red cable on battery ?
Lawence Barnaby n
Awesome video my friend thank you for keeping it simple sticking to the facts and also showing me what to do in the case of no key very good instructions thank you.....
I hope this is all I need
The Expedition is different. I have a 2008, and I searched everywhere for a video about it and found nothing. I'm going to do you all a favor her and tell you how I got the ignition cylinder out. You have to remove the collar around the steering column. And I also removed the panel under the column. Both easy, both have 3 screws. Then remove the black plastic ring around the keyhole which is part of the pats anti theft system. then you can see the hole to push up into, it's not exactly on the bottom, but rather toward the driver's seat about 7 o"clock looking at it from the side. I think I had to turn the ignition to the 1st click in order to push in the pin. The rest of this video is very helpful for the rest, thank you for sharing it!
Thank you so much for the huge help! Upvoted! in 2018!
They must of made them easier as time gone by I tried one in a car oh my was it hard
Sometimes that cylinder is a little sticky. I Just wiggled the key cylinder until i felt the pin push in. I made the mistake of loosening up the screws on the steering column covers, so the cylinder wss catching the cover, I finally realized it after 5 minutes of aggravation lol
I know this is an old video, however my 2004 f-150 ignition key has often refused to turn to start truck.. Question??? If I replaced the lock cylinder and kept the old key on keyring beside new key, would it allow the ignition to recognize the chipped key and start ????
I have a ford 2001 expedition.. I lost the factory key an brought an after market key. How can I reprogram the after market key myself?

Does anyone have a 04 150 Ford ignition replacement video? Thanks
Omg, i just went to the car mechanic because my car alarm keeps going off randomly. They said the lock cylinder needs to be changed and quoted me 250-300 dollars. 125 for labor per hour. Charging one hour of labor for a 5 minutes thing
good
How do you get the switch turned on from locked position
Helped me. Thanks! :)
If I bought a new ignition lock and it came with keys do I still need to get it programmed?
I don’t have the one click on my 2001 and my dash lights were on all night and it killed my battery
What do I do if swapped cylinder , but now my truck doesn’t crank at all ?
What about a 2007' Ford Escape?
hey what's the name of that green thing in the lock cylinder? cause my f150 is missing it, I assume it's the clicking mechanism, and how can I fix it, do I have to buy a whole new steering column??

Hi, i have a question, i have a 3001 ford f150 5.4 v8 xlt and earlier I was going to move my truck to the back of the parking lot, and as I turned it on and tried to put in reverse it feels like it got locked, what could it be
Thank you sir got me out of a jam
I did this but after putting the new one in it will not turn far enough back to allow me to pull the key out
If you do not have the keys you cannot drill out the detent and pull out without turning the cylinder to run position which requires the key or jamming something in there and hoping for the best.
I lost my last key what's the best way to get it out to put new one in
You are so right.....a locksmith has two tools that will go down each side compressing the tumblers in and remove the inner tumbler unit without taking the outer casing out.

How to disable theft system for 2003 F150
I wish you live across the street, I can use your help to replace the ignition cylinder of my Ford ranger. I will try myself this time see if I can do it.
One vital caveat that proved to be way more harm than good for me. If you are trying to do this without a key or a broken one. DO NOT TRY TO DRILL IT OUT UNLESS YOU REALLY KNOW WHAT YOUR DOING! I unfortunately fucked my shit up because the housing you would press an Alan key with if you could do it normally is way softer metal than the crome button.
sweet!
What about when the switch is broken and can’t put the key in the ignition because someone tried to steal it?

My problem is my car won't start do i need a new ignition switch?
Depends bro you got stuff to check before doing all that
Check the tire pressure first. If all 4 are good then it's most likely the ignition switch. Good luck

Try a puff of graphite for a quick fix. But consider it a warning.
