old iginition switch won't turn? PROBLEM SOLVED - 5/16/2008 5:35:12 PM    66JameStang Posts: 988 Joined: 1/19/2007 From: New Mexico Status: online Well I am trying to take out my old ignition switch but unfortunately The switch will not turn so... How do I disengage it  to remove the cylinder so I can remove the bezel ultimately enabling me to remove the switch??? This sucks I may just go mad and drill that junk out! I even broke off my original set of keys trying to turn the cylinder to the on and off position?... < Message edited by 66JameStang -- 5/17/2008 1:42:00 PM > _____________________________ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvMGFjJDVQI http://youtube.com/watch?v=O0HEeK9w_rM http://youtube.com/watch?v=AIcvBHrg9Us Post #: 1

I would just wiggle the paperclip or whatever while turning the key... also, you could try loading it up with wd40 to make everything move better. good luck. _____________________________ (in reply to 66JameStang) Post #: 2
