just worn out... have to push center of lock in while removing key
First, stick the entire key into it to the ignition and start the engine. When you stick it in, there will be two lights that will either flash or stay solid around it. This will help you to find the second key hole in the 2013 Altima.
ether to push the key in and around then pull out. or you have to oush on the breakes to do the first action i told you try to look for a key insertion on the board or beside stick shift to to out in to out a key copy to release the ignition key from the ignition key holder
The ignition tumblers are part of the cylinder , they are internal and are what differentiate the key cuts. They do occasionally stick and bind the ignition cylinder
I had this problem, the stick-shift was not fully in the 'park' position try and jiggle the stick.
Well, I don't see that it would help it any! There are 2 keys for a reason! Why would you want to insert the door key in the ignition? It surely won't start the vehicle! Unless the ignition is already screwed up and can start with anything! The tumblers in the the locks for the ignition and doors are different! It would be like putting your house key in the car! Won't work!
Yeah sure, its that thing you stick your key into to start it.
On my 99 there is a small hole in the top of where you put your key in, you have to stick some thing in there and play with the ignition with the key in. I used a small hole punch i had around.
No
how do I remove the key switch from a 1998 ford contour You have to remove the plastic trim around the steering column (behind the steering wheel). Put the key in the ignition cylinder and turn one click. There is a small hole on the side of the ignition cylinder, stick a small screwdriver into this hole and press hard. Pull out the ignition cylinder with the key.
one of the pins in the ignition might be stuck
You must push key and turn.
So it would seem. If the ignition is in the column it may also be jammed by the steering wheel lock. Try turning the steering wheel and holding it while turning the ignition key.
