Remove the ignition cylinder retaining ring. Poll the ignition cylinder out. Remove the wiring harness from the back of the ignition cylinder.
Why is my security light on and will not let my key come out of the ignition. 1999 buick regal
this is caused by ignition lock cylinder failure, you will have to replace the ignition lock cylinder and key.
the steering wheel will lock and the key will come out, unless of course the ignition cylinder is broken
Have you checked the fuses?
The spark plug gap setting on a 1994 Buick Century is .055 inches. A new spark plug will come preset from the factory and should not need adjusting.
Will any light come on when it's messing up? If not, you might have a problem with the ignition lock cylinder (where the key goes) or the ignition switch (the electrical part inside the steering wheel). Good Luck!!
I'm wondering if a locksmith is capable of rotating the ignition lock cylinder to the on/run position so the release can be depressed to remove the ignition lock cylinder, or if a locksmith can make an ignition key for the existing cylinder ? I'm also wondering what it would cost. I was charged $30.00 and taxes to come to my house and unlock my doorknob lock this year. Something to check out.
most cylinder misses are caused by a bad ignition wire if they are 5yrs or 60,000 old they should have been changed,same with spark plugs, other problems with buick ignition system is they have 1 coil that feeds two cylinders they are known to fail also. sometimes one cylinder fails and some fail on both cylinders.if you have a constant miss try changing coil after cetrifiying plug and wires are good. the ignition modules are known to fail by not giving spark signal to coils.you can put new wires and plugs if miss is still there change the cyl with # 3 on it they come cheap now. I you need module that can run you about 250..
my headlights wont come on at night i changed the sensor and still not coming on
Remove the switch by boring out the rivets holding it in place. The cylinder will come out easily once you get the lock free from its casing.
Buick made ABS standard on all cars in 1992 i think, but don't hold me to that. :-D But I know for a fact that the 1999 Buick Century came with ABS standard. New to 1999 though was an optional traction control, and you can't have traction control without ABS.
You need to turn the ignition to the on or start position, and then push the retaining pin to remove the cylinder. If you can not turn it, then you can either drill it out, or call a locksmith to come asist you.
