- This is an informative video on issues with your ignition switch. If you have to push all the way in and twist while pushing watch this video to fix it.
Holy cow I can't believe this worked 😂 I've been dreading fixing my car because according to other videos I watched I'd be spending anywhere from $50 to $160+, one dude's video said I would have to literally cut a bolt with a grinder to get the ignition assembly out 😱 and then you brilliantly explain how to use electric tape and a knife to fix the problem in minutes in your videeo. Thank you! My car is running again!
I did the push-in until I didn't work anymore. Changed the ignition switch (yes, I did) but no fix. Saw this video, popped out the cylinder -thing, tapes the end, VOILA!! It worked. On my way to work. Praise God and thank you, lady,for this video.
I just did this on my car. You are a LIFE SAVER. I feel like I can conquer the damn world. I'm not one to do anything like this but I felt empowered when I saw you do it with nails on!
I'd come across another video before this one that involved splicing wires on the opposite side of the column. I'm going to try your solution first and I'll let you know how it turns out.
Okay, so the next day I tried it, and sure enough it worked perfectly! I did have to wipe off a little bit of grease from the cylinder but no big deal. I also realized that I did not have to remove the bottom covering of the steering column.
Thank you so much.
I keep coming back to this video. To do this fix. You explain it so well.
It worked i love you was having so much trouble with it and now it starts right up
My car hasn't started this easily in over a year I tried the ignition switch it didn't help at all returned it tried this and had instant success. Hardest part was getting the key to release but once that came out everything went smooth. Thank you so much!
Wow thanks so much! 2010 Mercury Mariner here and I called into work today … this took me all of 20 minutes … if that. God bless you girl!!
You described my ignition problem perfectly. I followed your instructions to the letter. My ignition switch now works like new. Thank you for your help and consideration.
I saw ur nails and this was only 14 mins long so I said I’m looking. You are an absolute lifesaver. We drove our dam escape until we couldn’t push the key in any harder! We did wat u did until we get the part. It worked!!!! Your awesome. Thank you so much.
This video is the GOAT
She is the bomb I can’t believe how easy she made it. It was so easy to fix. Thank you so much
You explain this a lot better than a lot of guys do. Thank you for this video. Much respect.
Thanks so much for the video I literally have a ping pong sized blister from trying to start it for work I actually had to call in but thanks to you I have it working every time 😊
I have a blister too 😂😂
FANTASTIC!! I was beginning to think I couldn't drive my 2008 Ford Escape anymore because it was not starting..........and it was getting progressively worse. I did repair trick with tape that you suggested and it works great. And it took maybe 20 minutes from start to finish.
Thanks so much for solution.
The screw head is actually a 5.5 mm instead of a 7/32" head but I'm glad you were able to remove them!
Great video and explanation.
Straight killed it! Good job
FYI the reason the screws wouldn’t go in at the end is because you had the socket end in your hand ( backwards) but shit I ain’t hating you did a great job and I have the same issue with my escape so thank you 🙏
Well done my lady. The fact that you were able to do all that with long nails is amazing. Thanks for the video
AWESOME!!!!! Perfect tutorial.. Definitely resolved the issue1 You are amazing at explaining with clear DIY video
Thanks for sharing it worked on my 2008 Ford Escape,saved $$ from taking it to a mechanic and after being stood up by a locksmith 3x!
This video saved my lifffffe lol no lie!! I have a 2011 Ford Escape and was able to do it without taking bottom plastic part off. Just too part. Found that out when I didn't have right size rachet piece! Ty!!
Well done! I applied two wraps of hvac metal tape two years ago and my daily driver is still trouble free.
best solution i've found.
My cylinder has this black half circle on top and it wont fit back in...
lol I was thinking metal tape would work better than electrical tape, as I've done electrical tape and only lasted few turns. I'm about to go in the closet on my building and grab some hvac metal tape and try it out. Dealership already charged me 700 just to program ecm that someone put a wrong vin, turns out issue was abs module, so I'm over this car! Thanks for the video & comments.
This lady is the best
thanks it fixed my ignition lasted a year so ill do it again!!!! 15 min job
Thank you sis for tech you today my Ford escape same problem me search on CZcams this one prob so frst your video coming I see your video ofter me same work ofter my problem solve ❤️❤️❤️🇶🇦 God give you morest respect nd successful Amin 🌹
Unfortunately, this is a common problem in Ford Escape. I was having the same issue with my 2011 Ford Escape. My Mechanic had to replace my ignition switch cylinder. It solved the problem. I was trying to do it myself like you did in your video but I was afraid I was going to deploy my airbag.
Thanks for posting this. I was struggling with the same problem on my 2010 Escape. Then I saw your video with the "tape" solution and it worked great! Thanks for saving me a bunch of money!
Amazing! Having the same issue but in the earlier stage of failure. Not having to push it yet. That BUILT FORD TOUGH slogan is a joke. When it fails I will do the tape trick. TY so much!
Unfortunately it's a common problem on Ford's, failed ignition switch cylinder. I contacted Ford directly to see about recalls but there was no recall on my year of the Ford Escape's. I called the National Highway for Safety and reported my issue with them so they can document it for Ford to be aware, start recalling and fix our ignition switch cylinders.
2008 Escape. WOW WOW WOW You are the best I looked at some others before I found yours, Yours was so easy thank you so much. I was just about to call a tow truck to come get it and take it to the repair shop. 25 min from start to finish
Glad it helped!
You are a genius 👏-- God bless - much blessings in 2024 😊
I did the fix today. Worked perfectly on my Focus 2008. Exactly as described. Thank you señorita
Can I just say your the G.O.A.T you saved me thank you!!
Excelente video 💯
Not sure how long this fix will last, but it worked! I did not have to remove the bottom piece, just the covers at the top. Not sure if you thought of this hack, but it's brilliant! God bless you for posting!
Thanks for your sharing of how to fixed the ingition key❤❤.i easyly do the same issue of my car❤❤
Thank you for sharing this video you are a life saver
THANK YOU JACKIE, WE JUST WATCHED YOUR VIDEO AND FOLLOWED YOUR INSTRUCTIONS AND OUR CAR STARTED!!! THANK YOU GOD BLESS YOU!! yAyA
Your videos show great close ups and explanations. Thank you
This actually worked. But disclaimer for anyone that does it. You need to reassemble everything before it will work. My shit wasn’t working; I thought my key had to be reprogrammed. Once I put it all back, including the plastic covers and screws, it started working.
Great job explaining and showing every detail. You did a much better job than other videos I have seen. 👍👍👍👍
I may have to do this repair.
Thank you for the video. Will let you know.
Works on a 2008 Mazda Tribute...thanks!
No cap you dead...made that look easy and simple...I watched over 15 videos of people doing the most...my hands got dirty for nothing...thank you for this video...I already subscribed ❤️
Dang! Discovered this video late, Will give this a try, already spent so much changing the ignition control module, starter, battery etc…problem not solved. Hope this will do the trick for my 2012 ford escape
OMG!! Thank you very much for sharing your quick and easy fix. It solved the starting problem on my son's vehicle. 👍😁
Thank you. You saved me a lot of headache.
I had this problem, I'd seen vids about it before but today it finally just wouldn't work anymore and I had to try it. First time The key wouldn't turn and I took it back out and called my mechanic for a suggestion but he apparently didn't understand what I was doing because he said it wouldn't ork. I concluded maybe i had too much extra tape so I took that off and replaced it with 2 narrow pre-cut strips. Cranked right up.
I'm the least mechanical gal you'd ever meet s I'll state the cliche, if I can do it you can.
BUT
I'll add one tip: you don't actually need the bottom shell of the steering column to come off. I did mine by only removing the top.
Amazing. Lifesafer. Again!
Thank you so so so much you are a lifesaver I followed your instructions and it worked!!! Im so thankful so saved me alot of dollars. Blessings and thank you again!!!
Omg!!!! This video was so helpful to
Me…… thanks for the help…. You are great….. i saved dollar 💵 😊.
Thank you very much! It's a terrific solution. I been having this same issue with my 2009 ford escape. I'm definitely gonna try this fix.
Great help. Look and sound simple and it works. Thanks
Saved the day
Doing this today I done started it before I found you I'm like you I will you tube and fix it before I pay and arm and a leg thanks beautiful 😍
Thank you! Worked like a charm. This is definitely a temporary solution though. I did some more research and it seems to be the key cylinder pin that gets worn out (I was worried that it was the end that it gets inserted into). I have ordered a new cylinder and will replace it. This fix buys me time and peace of mind (it is my daughetr's car).
did you have to reprogram keys?
Worked like a charm!! How did you come up with it? Smart!!!
Wow you are amazing this is the solution I been looking for
Yo! Thank you so much for this video. You saved me hella money and time! Keep posting... I just subbed
Thank You this worked for me.
You are the best, love you

Wow, so tired of pushing so hard, replaced the electronic part on left side for $90, ready to buy $185 ignition module part. So one wrap did it, probably temporary, don't get it but it does work, crazy, thx. alot!!!!!
Life saver !! And I bet you smell good . Thanks so much ❤️

I cut a strip of aluminum from a soda can, and wrap it around once or twice, then hold it in place with some aluminum tape from Home Depot HVAC section.
Thank you so much
I had the same problem thanks for the info and good video
Genius hack. Somebody call NASA.

I'm hoping this is my problem as well thanks going to try in a few hours
Thank you ❤️.
I can't thank you enough
Thank you so much.......
You are so welcome!
I put two wraps of aluminum foil duct tape and it was a tight fit. No slack now. Feels new.
I already replacd the tumbler with a brand new one, and after about a month I'I started having the same issue again.
Thank baby gracias dulzura me ayudastes mucho mucho te amo
Your video is such a life saver. I have been dealing with this issue for weeks. Took twenty minutes to fix. Thanks!! Also do you replace the tape if it stops working again ? Is it something you can repeat.
Wonderfull ❤
Awesome
Thanks
Good ❤
You go girl!!
Thank you ❤️
It lasted a month lol so I'm going to do it again and then just go and have it replaced. Thanks again
I did this...such a great DIY fix. However, when I did it I had my driver's side door open and the door alarm which goes off when you have the door open and the key in started its "ding, ding, ding...". I completed the fix, put everything together and it is still going off. Once I close the door, it stops. Anybody out there have an idea or fix? Let me know, please!!!
This happened with mine too after applying this fix. Did you ever figure out a solution?
👍👏👏👏
How many wraps if using electric tape
What size socket did u use??
No se maltrato las uñas amiga, i hope not!
I feel stupid now
Que funcio hace el tape q le pone al llavin?
Es temporario mientras consigues la parte.
Donde consiguio usted la pieza o cual es el numero de la parte si la tiene de casualidad porque yo cambie toda la parte por otra del yunk yard lo soluciono por un tiempo pero lo empezo a hecer de nuevo muchas gracias
This is a temporary fix you need a new ignition housing!!
Duh
