thank you for that detail at the end, 9 years later and youre helping focus owners like my friend everyday
Once again, I have to thank you for this channel and your expertise! I PROUDLY still own my 1996 decked out, one of a kind, Conversion Ford Explorer! It’s wonderful knowing that I can check here for pointers that a Haynes manual doesn’t tell you regarding idiosyncrasies between the different years! It has over 250K miles on it and I wish I had kept it as a Collecter car. If I could find another, I’d buy it in a heartbeat! It’s interesting that when ordering the key cylinder replacement, they needed to know the exact month and date it was manufactured. Please keep posting anything else for anyone else who owns these Fords and follows you or for those who might still find your EXCELLENT shared experience and advice!🙏👏😎💕🙏❤️😎🤠!
Conversion ford explorer?? Van or truck?? I am in a 94 ford e150 conversion van 5.8L all leather absolutely mint picked up in 2017 with 18,800 miles on it. 45,000 now. I absolutely love this van.
UA-cam is a great source of information. you saved the day . ty for posting
Thank you very much I love your explanations on how to do things! I don’t mean to complain but there’s too many videos out there of people giving you the full history of their truck before they show you how to do what you’re looking for! In my defense I’m an old bitter crabby old man with no patience and I don’t care to hear about everybody’s personal history on that truck !!
Some guy in Missouri posted a video pulling the airbag and steering wheel on a obs f150 to change the lock cylinder. We spent a year one night in Misery on our way to Arizona. Thanks for posting FordTech!
Just did this today. This really works ! At first this key would not turn to the on position. It finally loosened after i sprayed WD-40 into the lock assembly. Thank you.
I can't believe it... I just can't believe it... too many years looking and looking, spending some nice bucks on the Haynes service guide... and literally is this easy... lol!!! Thanks for sharing!!!
Just want to say thank you I have literally rebuilt my 93 ford e350 completely off your videos as you as my teacher you are appreciated sir👍

Thanks for having a very clear, precise video. Good sound quality makes a huge difference especially when it comes to giving instructions.
I know this is an old video got dude thank you so much I’ve been trying to find a good explanation video, I had to replace the ignition switch in my 89 Marquis and had no idea what to do. Thanks so much appreciate it
Thank you for keeping it short and simple! You really helped me out man
Had an indicator wire break in the column and this was the key I needed to get that top half of the shroud off. Thank you!
Line it back up the way it came out,it only goes in one way,like a puzzle piece,put everything back together,great. But what do you do if you have no keys to turn the switch?
Drill it out and turn it with a screwdriver
Take a pocket knife and a pair of plyers and twist the ignition. You can put a screw drive run along the side to pop the ignition and install and new ignition lock cylinder they come with keys. Depending on the security your key may need programed or you can use a wire on your starter fuse under the hood.
What if you don't have a key and you lost it how do you get to switch out if you don't have a key to turn it on
How do you get the ignition switch out if you lost the key anybody know
your tips are very helpful, I'm a ford man from way back. I just drive it, keep up the oil changes and have very good luck with them! don't care what you drive, you take care of your car, it will take care of you! thanks for the videos!
Being a Ford guy and owning 4 of them, I really like knowing your on UA-cam posting these great informative videos. I've learned a lot of tips and things to look out for by watching your videos and appreciate it. Keep them coming I enjoy watching them and learning from them even if I don't own the model your posting a video about.
Thank you soooooo much!!! I have a 2001 Ford Excursion and only took me 15mins and I have no experience in the automotive field! Thank you for your honesty!!!
Excellent video...knowing what you're trying to depress inside the access hole makes all the difference. thanks. Worked great. e
Great platform with the quick tips saved me a lot of time as it reminded me of how to do this. Which gave me time to leave a like, a comment and a thank you. As I'm not frustrated and bouncing from video to video looking for the needed info. Again, Thank You!
Wow! What a pro, thanks for the professional easy install video!
Last time I was in there I broke my tab off to kill the ding.. this time I said I bet I don't need to take these screws out and here you are! Thanks for the 3 minute fix, I'm going back to doing nothing!
Thanks for your clear & easy to understand videos, keep up the time saving good work....5 stars...
Thanks for a short but great video! Little tips help a lot!!
Love your channel. I was able to fix my own passenger airbag switch that had been dinging and dinging and chiming and dinging...well you get the idea. A guy wanted 100.00 to change it out for me, but I watched your video and did it myself!! And Im just a GIRL!!! lol Thanks!!
What if you don't have the key?
no one shows how to do it without the key... :(
@@marshallvomenici5469 Cause that's how they get stolen ..You have to break it so it turns
I can't turn the key to the forward position at all
You gotta have the key.
I've drilled the bottom pin out and ran a 3/8 drill bit down the ignition to break the tab off at the end of the column.
Love this. You rock.🤘😝 My boyfriend was about to rip apart the whole steering column!! Saved me from hearing all the cussing. Lol
The best tech advice. Thanks
Just saw.... You came in clutch
Thank you so much! You made that incredibly easy by explaining and showing the ball mechanism release. Popped right out!
Dude, you're a life saver! I work on MINI and everything is completely different. These little tips are critical in saving time for guys like me. Thank you for your knowledge. Best!
This doesn't apply to a 1988 Ford E350 but this is a great video and I'm thankful for you putting them online for us.
Seems like your the one that can explain it simply enuff.
Thanks.
Thank you Ford Man. You saved me a lot of time. You have many good vids. Don't go anywhere, we need ya!!!
My ignition switch on my 11’ Ranger isn’t staying in the accessory position. Can I swap a new switch for my old one that seem late worn or broken?
Thank you bro u always break it down and make r life easier 💯 🙏
Good video. I always seem to forget the pin on the cylinder lock mechanism.
I just bought 1 of the most beautiful Canadian barn finds I ever came across just because of the shape it's in. A 1971 Lincoln Continental Mark 3. 46000 miles parked in a big open barn in the middle up against a wall since 1979. The car is all there except? The KEYS! I almost died when I popped the hood grabbed the crank and it turned. My question is: How do I pull the ignition out without the keys. To everybody out there that see's this It is up for grabs after I get new keys for it. The other question I have is, should I start the car or leave it for the next guy?
Hey Brian - thanks for this very useful information, I will save this video since I own a Ford Windstar -
Thanks man! it's the little stuff that makes it so much eayer!
Thx Brian, video saved me money always helpful.
If my truck has an anti-theft system, is there anything I should know before I remove the ignition lock? Will something get screwed up if I remove it?
I have a 96 Ford f150 same like your video but my cylinder lock turns easy to the first and second decision for when it comes to starting a car it's kind of stiffy but turns the car on easily. I never had a problem turning the car on but the key on the final turn is very stiff. How can I fix this can you help me? Thank you
Hey I jist bought a 1991 Ford F-450/F-Super Duty... It has an ignition problem the steering column is the most simple with no wiper controls, cruise, or extra controls of any kind... When I go to turn it on the ignition wants to turn back too far where it kills the engine, I have to remove the shroud and place vise grips on the metal rod to hold it in place. I when I place the vise grips on the rod it can be too far forward to the point where the signals and climate controls won't work (because it thinks the starter is engaged), but if it backs off too much a bump in the road will kill the engine. Luckily its a standard transmission so if it dies going down the road you just turn the ignition forward and it restarts the engine without stopping and engaging the starter again. But if you do this going down the road. Un burnt fuel goes out the exhaust and I literally exploded the muffler driving it home from purchase on a 700kms trip from norther Alberta to southern Alberta. Any tips?
What if I cannot turn the key into the run position? Is there a way to remove that cylinder without turning the key in the run position?
Thanks, I was lost on that 😅 all fixed up now
Thank a lot. This is exactly what I was looking for.
I had a question I'm doing this same job on my 07 crown Victoria I have the new ignition with the key but I lost my old key and I'm not able to get into the run position is there another way to get it into the room position without a key maybe using a screwdriver to turn it over to the on just so I can get the ignition out I appreciate your advice in advance
What if you do not have the keys for the Ford that you are working on.
I might be buying a 1989 Ford ranger from a friend but the keys were recently stolen in a home invasion. What would be that process that I would need to follow to rekey the ignition and doors?
Excellent tutorial! Keep em coming.
What about installation does the new lock cylinder have to turn to the run position?
Manuel Villarreal Jr the locking pin won't retract on the cylinder unless in the right position. Could be run, could be accessory depending on vehicle
What if the tumbler is stuck in the off position ?
Thanks it helped me out, I have a 96 E150, Took me not even 5 minutes.
Thank you this was a great video.
1996 Ford Bronco I am restoring, I did this in the process of replacing upper bearing in steering column. I get it in and then the key is basically stuck in the cylinder. It turns to all the positions except counter clockwise enough for me to remove the key.... any ideas?
Many thank's Feel good saving a few Bucks doing it myself. LOL "The Job went like Clock Work"
What if it’s locked in the off position and you can’t pout it in the run position to take the Cylinder out?
Yes how????
Thanks for the update, keep up the goog work
I really appreciate you to upload this video,it gave me the way to help my old neighbor to fix his ford,thanks Mr.
Outstanding! Thanks for doing this little video!
again dude, good quick tip! if i had time i would show whats done on a cobalt ignition recall, which requires remoing the 3 7mm screws and taking off the 2 trim piece halfs under the wheel, and ofc 2 torx 15's for the switch, and run position and a 90 deg pick to remove cylinder! bing bang boom done xD
ford bin releasing many recalls in the last few months?
Kevin Rogers Yeah I know what you mean on the gm lock cylinders had a regal once. Ford has been releasing plenty of recalls most of them stupid stuff extended warranty programs etc to increase customer satisfaction which is a good thing.
My door locks needed replacing so I got a complete new set of door lock cylinders and new ignition cyclinder with matching keys. However, the new ignition key will not start my 2007 Ranger.. Anti-theft (car with lock indicator flashes and stays on). Now I'm using 2 different keys....one for doors and one for ignition. Anyone know how to overcome this issue?
Too easy , Thank You Brian !
How do you put it in run position when it won't turn at all?
Thank you for clear instruction. After removing, and reinstalling cylinder, ignition works fine, but key is stuck... tips?
Same thing happen to me did you fix the problem?
Any luck with the issue?
Omron switch on Shifter column console? Tells truck its in park.
The removal seems easy. Is there a trick to replacing the new oneM Is there a video for it?
Bought a 2003 crown Victoria from a tow yard with no key, I want to change the ignition how would you go about changing it in the lock position?
so glad to see this vid - was at the gas station last night and the key just got stuck in the ignition, wheel wouldn't turn... i pulled the 'girl in distress' card (which by the way, i hate doing) and a gentleman at the next pump, as luck would have it, had had the same issue and did the brake, pull the wheel, jiggle jiggle which at least got me home... so assuming i need another of these, which will have to be ordered, is there a way i can keep the many key/remotes i have?? also, can i give it a couple shots of something like a dry lubricant to at least keep it going until i get a replacement?
You saved my day
Thank you! I have a 1987 Turbo Coupe that is being more of a Thunderturd than a Thunderbird, and you’ve helped save me a bunch of time and money!
To the Thunderbird Guy.
I can’t help but tell you the WONDERFUL MEMORIES your comments brought me back to my 1977 Thunderbird that was Playboy’s
Car of The Year! I bought it off the showroom floor in 1978. Mine was one of only 7 built at the factory that were termed “Continental“ Styling! It was SO LUXURIOUS AND people loved it and gave me many compliments and questions. It had a 351 Windsor, 4 barrel carb, and was a bullet!!! But wasn’t terrible on gas, which amazed me!
I restored it and was going to keep it off the road as a collector. Several years later I fell in love with a 40 ft 4 horse living quarters, 3 axel horse trailer that was one of a kind and fit my immediate needs, so I sold it.
A year or 2 later, I was notified that the buyer never transferred the title and it was in the impound lot. I proved my bill of sale and they said it had been trashed and headed for the crusher! It broke my heart! Thanks for helping me remember all the WONDERFUL TIMES I had with that show stopper, I never should have let go of!❤️💕♥️
See my reply to you Thunderbird Guy!
@@sheilasmith1109 up til the impound part, it’s wonderful! The 77 was a big beautiful car, and amazing to be one of only seven made that way!
I know my Turbocoupe is one of a handful with its particular options, but certainly more than one of seven…and no 351 to scoot it along. The horse trailer probably/hopefully brought you many wonderful memories as well ❤️
@@sheilasmith1109 and thank you for sharing your story, it’s nice hearing there are other car lovers out there who enjoy the quirkier facts and such :)
Can you help I've got a a you falcon that I've got foreign objects stuck in the ignition barrel and I can't get the key in all the way,
how do I pull the ignition barrel out
I bought a new ignition cylinder for 1994 Ford Ranger. As I was taking it out of box 2 little pins fell out. Do you know where they go?
What if I don't have the key
thanks man love videos like these.
Very nice videos. Detailed and informative. I have subscribed. Thank YouI have a 2007 Ford Escape XLT 2.4 Cylinder. Home Burglarized and they also stole my ONLY Car Key. They did not Steal the car because I removed the Battery and it was in the Garage on a Trickle Charger. However I do not have ANY keys to the Car. I can get into the Car because the Doors are unlocked. I ordered from Ebay two spare PATS Keys. If I do remove the entire Key Cylinder and Purchase a New one from AutoZone, how do you get a Blank Key to Work on a New Cylinder? This part confuses me.
Shouldn't need to say this, but we forgot, so make sure you unhook your battery before
What if you cant turn the key to the run position i have 98 ford mustang someone tried to steal and damaged the ignition and key wont turn
Travis Allen Same here but with a 94 Ford Ranger. Someone did the same thing when trying to steal it, there’s a broken key inside and doesn’t turn to run position.
What if it's in the lock position and you have lost the key
Did you get the answer? what to do in a situation when you don’t have the keys
Great video good info but my question is how do I remove the ignition lock cylinder without the key, it is missing but have another cylinder
you must drill it out
@@FordTechMakuloco hey whats up man, you drill exactly where you insert the key straight in? Or what do you mean man? Thanks in advance
The only people that disliked this video are ones that do not drive Fords
I envy those people 😂
I’m looking at buying a used 2012 Ford F250XL 6.2 gas engine unfortunately he doesn’t have the key for it how can I go about removing or replacing the ignition key tumbler so I have a key to start it with any help would be appreciated. Thanks love your videos been very helpful on my ford trucks.
Hello great video, I was able to get the lock cylinder out but the tab on the end of it broke off inside the steering column. Causing it to be stuck in run position even when the key is in the off, acc position and with the key out. So my question is how do I get the broken piece out so I can Install the new one?
Did you get an answer on how to remove that tip I've tried a magnet and it's not working
I had a lock cylinder stop turning on me one very cold morning on my 00 focus. Turns out (no pun intended) the tiny Springs that push the lock bar out must have broke/shattered rendering it useless.
Found the TSB and drilled a 10 mm hole (pilot hole first) to the correct depth and location, then was able to successfully extract the cylinder!
Attohertz Yes I have done a few but what a mess it makes.
FordTechMakuloco Yes it was like new years confetti all over the place! Cobalt freeze hardened drill bits FTW.
Excuse me I have a question for you I want to replace my ignition cylinder key cause I have some problems with it but I want to know if I have to go to the dealership to reprogram the new key or new cylinder key thanks hopefully you answer
What if you can't turn it into the "run position"?
What if I can't get the key to turn to run postion 03 f350?
Did you ever get a answer I lost my keys any help would be appreciated
I lost my ford ranger keys to the ignition switch so I used a screw driver and break the lock and wasn't really able to turn it so I drilled the pinball out and that worked now I've got underneath is a bigger hole than the original pinball so it's bigger 😅 I'm wondering 🤔 if I could use jb weld? To fill in it or maybe a bolt ? Would a bolt interfere with anything like the electronics lmk
Love the videos you post great information. I recently replaced the cam fallowers on my 05 Lincoln navigator thanks to your great information. But now im having a different problem, my navigator starts to crank on its own without the ignition being on. Would this be an ignition problem. Thank you so much and i hope to hear from ya
Cant say ive seen this issue, hopefully the master tech will see this. Is it still doing it ?
the reason I need to replace my cylinder is because the the tumblers have rusted in place and won’t even slow the key into the cylinder or let alone turn it to the run position. I would actually think that’s the main reason someone would even need to replace the cylinder so any tips on how to remove the ig cylinder without the ability to turn it and depress that ball/button that locks it in place?
1990 ford bronco...won't stay in the running position..I have to make sure it is turned just right to stay running and then any bumps or movment will cause it to turn off. If i hold it foward it stays running. Is it just the cylinder? Or the copper gear..or maybe the plastic gear part? Idk?
Wish I had made a spare before I lost my only key 😂
Hey, we've got a 98 Windstar and we're working on replacing the ignition lock cylinder and I have a question: the instructions we got with our cylinder say that for some models you have to detach an alarm wire from the old cylinder and attach it to the new one. Is the Windstar one of them, and am I right in that we'd have to remove the shroud on the steering column to attach that wire? Thanks in advance!
There is a little key in sense wire on there most years and a orange switch on the lock cylinder itself. If the lock is not broken the wire will stay in play while the lock cylinder is being removed.
I need to know how to replace ignition switch cylinder without key
I ended up drilling mine out. Broke 3 bits in the process, but after about an hour, I was eventually able to turn the ignition to the on position. Wish I hadn't lost the key last summer!
Hello! what to do when key don't turn? 2000 ford focus LX sohc.
dear sir..thanks for the nice video... i have an 2012 ford edge... and once the climate is hot.. ignition doesnt crank at all... have to wait untill its pleasent weather.... whats the problem..many thanks in advance
Thanks very much for your video, it was great.
TY. I have a question. My windshield wipers will on work if I am giggling the ignition lock cylinder (unless I find "the sweet spot"), does that mean the whole thing is loose? (something is loose the way I can wiggle it).
Apologies...I wanted to follow up with the fact that I did replace the power steering pump a couple months ago but unfortunately there has been air in the line so it has been making a slight whining sound for awhile....not near as bad as before the replacement though. I am taking the truck to rotate the tires next week and will bleed the lines then, but I just wanted to bring that up in case there is a correlation. Thanks.
What happens if the plastic piece and gear come out behind the ignition I have no idea how to get it back in properly and can’t find any videos on it
Nice, except my key wont turn and is locked. So no help with that issue. But good to know any way.
CRAZY world question.(2009 ford edge)If I took the ECM,Ignition tumbler and transponder from a donor car and installed it in my car,,,,,WOULD IT START?(I have no clue if the cluster is involved in this scenario)
when you buy a new Ignition Lock Cylinder how do you put the two pieces together do I have to pull that lil clamp up
Best to just search that up too bro, honestly
So how would you remove the ignition switch mounted below it. It looks like there are 2 bolts holding it in but they don't done out?
Now how to remove the chip from the ignition key and glue it inside near the lock so I NEVER have to program another key.....
