    thanks this was helpful. was able to chisel them off. went to my hardware store today and found a metric match. M8 x 1.25 x 16mm or shorter, a sharp wood chisel worked really well.

      Yes, they typically come out pretty easily, once they’re broke free.

    If you turn the steering wheel you can unbolt the lower plastic cover without removing the steering wheel or any other components! 👍🏼

      There is no chip in a 2013 in a kia Sorento. Just remove the top cover with the steering wheel at low,Then high to remove the lower screw then turn the steering to exspose the two front facing screws and remove that lower cover after disconnecting the battery. Then you can chisel the factory break away bolts. I got a a new ignition switch from O'Reilly's that came with no bolts. I went to home Depot and got some m8 125 allen bolts to secure the upper ignition bracket because it walls are narrow to accept regular bolts. No steering wheel removal and was about 45 minutes of a task with a sharp chisel getting those rascal of knocked loose.

    Hey Big Dog, i’ve got mine completely unhooked and unbolted, but I can’t finagle it out of the steering column without removing the plastic shroud under the steering wheel. How are you able to get yours out without taking that plastic piece off? Thanks in advance!

    • @BigDogDiagnostics
      @BigDogDiagnostics  Рік тому +3

      Nope. The the immobilizer lock cylinder and transponder keys all come as a unit. Very plug and play on this vehicle. If you were to just replace the key itself, you would then need to have it programmed or the immobilizer system will not recognize the new transponder RFID code inside your new key.

      @BigDogDiagnostics  9 місяців тому +1

      Yes, if it ignition isn’t returning to the off position or stuck in acc position could definitely cause that. But there’s also a whole bunch of other things that could cause that. You would just need to diagnose the issue at hand. Check service information and and figure out where power is supplied to and under what circumstances when the key is in different positions. Look at the stereo wiring diagrams and look where the power, signal and grounds are supplied from. Make sure a relay is not stuck on..
