The ignition barrel can be removed by removing the retaining ring. The barrel will slide out. Remove the wiring harness from the back of the barrel.
Worn key or barrel, do you have a new key you can try it with ? If it still doesn't turn properly you got a worn ignition barrel that has to be replaced
yes if the shear pin / retainer pin is removed
There are special tools. Take it to Precision Tune.
The barrel is not timed properly to the switch.
to remove stilo ignition barrel, look underneath the barrel. there is a square button holding the barrel in. put the key in the ignition, turn 2 notches, and press the button in with a screwdriver. Then wiggle the barrel out using the key.
Remove the plastic shroud underneath the steering colum by pulling out the plastic rivnuts. This exposes the ignition barrel. There are two options from here. The common issue is actually the key lock which can be removed by turning the key to position 'I' on the lock (accessories on). On the rear side there is a round recess which has a pin in it. Push the pin in using a set of circlip pliers or similar 90 degree tool. With this pin pushed in the lock can be pulled out of the ignition barrel. When inserting a new lock make sure the key is in the same 'I' position. If you need to remove the whole ignition barrel the upper plastic shroud needs to be removed and you will have to chisel off the fasteners located on the top of the barrel and steering column as these are shear fasteners which are one use only.
if its the Toyota mr2 mk2, then this is easy,1, place the key in the ignition and turn to acc,2, press the small button that is sunk into the top of the barrel behind the facia,3, withdraw the barrel,hope this helps, as for any other way without the key i couldn't tell you, i have just removed mine this way and replaced it
Remove the ignition module retaining ring. Pull the ignition barrel out. Remove the wiring harness from the back of the ignition barrel. Reverse the process to install the new ignition module.
Once you have the forearm removed you need a special spanner wrench to remove the tube/nut below the barrel. The bolt handle pin is then drifted out of the bolt and then the bolt handle can be removed from the bolt body. The barrel will now come out the front end of the receiver.
Undo the chrome ring at the front of the ignition, the ignition switch assembly can then be removed from the back of the dash. Unplug the lead in the back remove the ignition switch & throw it in the bin. You could try drilling the barrel out, it would probably be best to buy a complete new assembly, you wont get the old barrel out without a key. You will also need new door locks.
A rifle that has barrel removed- not likely. Revolver that has barrel removed- VERY likely.
