'99' locked ignition lock cylinder Posted by Roger D [Email] (#1121) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Roger D) on Mon, 2 Nov 2020 09:33:46 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
This has been vexing me since BP (before pandemic). My nice fairly low miles car has been sitting in the garage since last winter. Can't figure this one out. I was getting ready for spring. Replaced the ABS module and the light show on the dash was finally resolved. The remaining issue was the lock cylinder would fail to pop all the way back up on an infrequent basis. It left the radio on a few times and ran the battery down. The area around the console was suffering from years of popcorn, coffee, eating abuse. So it was pull the console, clean and lube the cylinder and generally clean the area. Got the cylinder out. Soaked it in Coleman fuel. Blew it with compressed airing soaked it again. Hit with TriFlow and now it won't turn at all. Fussed with it on and on. Then got another lock cylinder with a matching TWICE. Clean it and lubed it. It turned once and locked up. Both cylinder now refuse to turn. HELP I miss my turbo. My beater Buick in not a joy to drive .........
