Signs your ignition needs a locksmith
Most ignition problems start small and get worse with daily use. Call a locksmith if:
The key won’t turn, or turns only after jiggling
The key is stuck in the ACC position and won’t come out
The key has snapped in the ignition: leave the piece where it is
The ignition feels loose or turns without the key
Your keys were stolen and you want the old ones to stop working
• Three options
Ignition repair, rekey or replacement?
We check it at your car and tell you which option makes sense.
Repair
A worn or sticky ignition can often be repaired.
Rekey
If your keys were lost or stolen, we can rekey the ignition so the old keys stop working.
Replace
If the ignition is badly damaged, we replace it.
Broken piece stuck inside? See broken key extraction. Need a new key? See car key replacement.
• Before we arrive
Ignition trouble? Don't make it worse
Don’t spray oil or lubricant into the ignition, and don’t try to pull a stuck key out with pliers. If the key has already broken, tell us when you call.
