Want this question answered?
you need to be more specific. i am going to assume you want to know in what position is the ignition switch in lock. usually it is 2 positions back from "run" but it is in whichever position the key comes out of the ignition.
It is probably caused by the ignition switch internals shifting (I had a similar problem before) and it turned out to be the ignition switch)
It engages and disengages the lock that starts the vehicle. There are 2 parts to the switch. The ignition switch and the lock assembly.
no the switch can be independly remove from the back side of the ignition lock
Not without picking it over or breaking it. The switch needs to be turned, and the retainer depressed to remove the lock cylinder.
no
change the Ignition Lock lock switch
Yes. The lock cylinder is metal part that the key goes into. The ignition switch houses the lock cylinder.
