Re: ignition switch replacement

put a paper clip in the little hole on the switch, turn it-can't remember which way- and the tumbler will come out.

Re: ignition switch replacement

You have to remove the lock cyl. first. Turn switch to acc. position and insert wire into hole on face of lock and push in. You will feel a spring loaded pin as you push. Then turn cyl to the left and pull. You might have to wiggle it a bit , but it should pull out.
