What is an Ignition Cylinder?

If your vehicle uses manual locks and keys, there’s a good chance that it features an ignition cylinder switch. This is a mechanical part with an interchangeable core that houses the lock cylinder. It’s usually built into the steering column, although depending on the make and model of your vehicle it may be placed in the dashboard. When you go to start your vehicle by sliding your key in and turning it, the ignition cylinder switch activates and rotates.

Ignition cylinders can wear down over time, especially as vehicles with manual locks and keys become older. If you have a heavy key ring, this can weigh down on your ignition lock and cause damage to the pins and tumblers inside the ignition lock, for example. Or damage to the key that seems minor may cause damage to the lock when inserted. Whenever the case may be, our locksmiths can perform a quick ignition change if it’s needed.

A worn down or failing ignition cylinder can cause warning signs that resemble an issue with your engine itself, including difficulty turning the vehicle on, the engine stalling at random, or an inability to start the vehicle at all if the ignition cylinder has totally failed. You may notice a problem before the ignition cylinder fails, but you may be unlucky and go to start your engine one day only to find that it refuses to cooperate.
