Broken ignition lock cyl..question
 

Earlier this week I though I had a bad ignition switch... but the ign lock cylinder broke the tab that turns the switch.

From tha picture I just saw on DCautomotives site It looks like the part that broke off inside the ignition electrical switch is part of the lock cylinder.. is that correct?

Here is a used one...

Take a look:

Sure looks like it. It happened to me...not fun nor cheap to remedy. You'll need a new one which means a new key which means two keys, one for the door and one for the ignition....or you could get everything redone to keep the one key effect. OR...you could install a master switch and starter button....very race car like...and costs less

Well aused lock cylinder isnt that much..DC has one for $8

You wont need two keys if you take it to a locksmith and have it keyed to your existing key. Abt $40

I stand corrected.. the used lock cylinder is for a door.. the assy is more.. with the switch (which I dont need).

Anybody been sucessful getting a door lock cylinder to work in the ignition?
