The ignition system provides the electrical spark needed to start the engine and keep it running efficiently.
Modern vehicles use immobilizer systems that require the key to be reprogrammed to communicate with the new ignition cylinder.
A worn-out ignition cylinder may cause difficulty in turning the key or lead to a complete failure to start the vehicle.
The ignition switch is a critical component that can wear out over time and may need replacement to restore proper function.
A pin or pick tool is often required to release the locking mechanism and safely remove the ignition cylinder.
Disconnecting the battery prevents electrical shocks and damage when working on the ignition system.
