take the serial # off the dash of your car to the dealer.
car starts without key
The ignition cylinder is the part you turn your key in to start the car, this is in its housing.
If the key will not turn the ignition on a Lincoln Town car, the key may have been damaged and might need to be re-coded. The ignition could also be damaged or locked because of an incorrect key.
Perhaps you have the wrong key
Your ignition lock is broken.

The key to my ignition broke off in the ignition. Luckily, I was able to insert the remainder of the key in the ignition and turn on my car. In order to fix the problem, I had to take my car to the dealer and I am pretty sure they removed it and installed a new ignition "key hole" keyed to my car. It is a 1990, and I believe the problem happened approx 1993?
If the Car didn't start with the key turning the ignition then the car was "hotwired" to turn the Car on.If the key did not start the car, how was it started.
the ignition barral will relese the key when the car is in park
Well you put the key in the ignition and you turn it.
No. This doesn't mean any properly cut key will work though. The computers in the car are sophisticated enough to tell which metals the key is made from. The car then compares the metallurgy of the key in the ignition to the file on the computer's memory. If they match, the car will start.
