Remove the plastic shroud from the steering column by removing its screws in the holes underneath first, and then you look under the steering column near the igntion lock (probably half way back down the length of the lock) for the location of a small hole that you would put an icepick into,, and when you have the lock picked and turned 1/3 to the right (towards dash) you push up in the hole with the icepick to push in the set pin located in the lock-then you pull out the lock.
If you cant do this you will have to very, very gently drillout the lock by driling straight into the keyway bypassing two small hardened steel pins in it. If you do this be very careful not to damage any more of the lock center than you have to, or it can damage the outer casing of the stering column lock retaining mount and destroy it.

∙ 17y agojust because you can't unlock the wheel, doesn't mean you can't remove the assembly...read up on inner workings/// Everyone should have a manual for their vehicle, and a professional shop manual should be available at your local library, just make copies of the right pages, as they are usually REFERENCE only...read up and good luck :)

How do you remove the ignition cylinder in a 1992 F250 so that you can have it re-keyed?
My boyfriend and I just did this in his Ford E150. You have to remove the steering wheel (several autopart stores rent steering wheel removers). From there you can see the ignition switch. The ignition switch cylinder is about 4 inches long, and projects into the steering column. All you have to do is press a small tab, then pull out the ignition switch. New ignition switches (with keys) are available at autopart stores. I suggest looking at a picture of the switch before attempting to find the tab yourself. BETTER ANSWER You do not have to remove steering wheel. on the bottom of the steering cover there will be three screw holes and a second smaller hole under the switch. with a pocket screw driver on similar device you can push the tab to release the switch.
How do you program a peugeot 106 key fob?
You can program new keys to the system if you have two valid sentry keys by performing the following procedure: # Cut the additional Sentry Key Transponder blank(s) to match the ignition switch lock cylinder key code # Insert the first valid key into the ignition switch and turn the ignition switch ON for at least 3 seconds but no longer than 15 seconds. Turn the ignition switch OFF and remove the first key. # Insert the second valid key and turn the ignition switch ON within 15 seconds. After ten seconds a chime will sound and the Theft Alarm Light will begin to flash. Turn the ignition switch OFF and remove the second key. # Insert a blank Sentry Key into the ignition switch and turn the ignition switch ON within 60 seconds. After 10 seconds a single chime will sound. The Theft Alarm Light will stop flashing, turn on for 3 seconds; then turn off. The new Sentry key has been programmed. Repeat this procedure to program up to a total of 8 keys. If you do not have a programmed sentry key, contact your dealer for information.

How do you change a ignition switch in a 1995 ford thunderbird without having the old keys?
This may sound ridiculous... but force the the ignition switch until the detent "breaks" and you can turn the ignition switch without the key. The risk here is that you could possibly break the assembly that the ignition switch inserts into. If you can get the switch to rotate from the lock position one position clockwise, then you can release the switch from underneath the steering column and pull the switch out. The alternative is to have a locksmith get the ignition switch to rotate one position clockwise and then you can remove the switch and replace it with a new one from any auto parts store.
