Do I need a new key when replacing the switch? I have a 2009 Ford escape - same key style
I have just had one of my cars the escape had the same problem
Thanks to your help I saved 250$ also only took me 10min. Fix. No BS. Easy as can be.
I never work on cars, but I saw you video this morning when my ignition switch wouldn’t work anymore. You made it look so easy that I tried it for myself. It took about 15 minutes once I got all the tools together. Thanks so much.
Glad I was able to help 😃
Thanks, you saved me hundreds..instead of hiring a mechanic, I watched your video and done it myself...
Thanks a million!! You saved me from paying labor charges. I did it in under 20 minutes with 6 inches nails it's literally that easy!! And the part was inexpensive on Amazon.
Thank you for this video. The push-in method stopped working for me. I bought the part from Amazon for $30 and I replaced it in about 20 minutes. Works perfectly now
What year is ur escape?
glad I was able to help!
Curious is it still working?
Ty so much!! Worked great! I messed up at first because I didn't align the key correctly when installing it into that part's notch.
Gotta say I watched your video told my boyfriend I can do that myself as well! Turns out he held me to it, and thanks to your video and the step by step process, I was able to do it all on my own! So I do thank you and appreciate the detailed video. Hopefully, that was my issue, but either way, I did it!
I’m glad I was able to help!
OMG yes i am going to DO IT myself i keep u posted
Thanks a million, your video just saved me $500 bucks which I was charged by a mechanic to fix this issue...😂 I ordered the part on Amazon for $35 plus the 5.5mm screw driver for $22 at a total of $57 and in less than 1 hr I fixed it and car now starts normal
Can't thank you enough so I subscribed ❤
Thanks for making this video. I have a 2009 Ford Escape and it was having ignition problems. I ordered a $60 dollar part off of amazon and successfully replaced the switch with the help of this video. Thank you !!!
glad I was able to help!
Curious is it still working?
Very useful video: Successful part replacement in only 15 minutes. I saved big $$$ from dealer repair and cost me only $42. Thanks friend and To God be the glory.
God bless you bro
I had this problem with my 2010 Mazda Tribute and everyone told me I need to change the entire ignition assembly and quoted me 1500-2000$.
Even online most ppl said the same thing until I came across this video, tried it and worked out perfect
Oh Man, you have no idea how much this helped. My issue is the exact same but on a Mazda Tribute, which is basically a Ford Escape. This video was very well done and explains just what I need to do. Thanks for such a tutorial.
Had an exact problem on my 2008 escape. Followed your video and solved my problem. Probably saving me the cost of having a mechanic charge for a 5 min fix. Much thanks 🙏
very easy fix! glad I could help
Thank you for this video! I watched several stating the whole ignition lockout module would need replaced which requires the steering wheel to be removed. Your solution did not. The ignition switch is part of the module on the left which they did not show as being separate but it was, and cheaper too by ten to two hundred dollars. Did it myself in under two hours. Thanks again!
Ha I’ve been using the flick of the wrist technique for a year. Went out yesterday. And this fixed it all!!! You’re a savior. Thanks a bunch.
It worked! I am not good with tools or cars, so anyone who thinks they can't, you can too! Thanks for the detailed steps.
You’re Popular in my book bro…THANK YOU FOR SIMPLICITY OF VIDEO..
Very simple!!! I just watched a video where the guy dismantled the entire steering wheel to do this job.
I seen your other video with the trick and the trick was no longer working on my 2012 escape, thank you so much for this video!! Oreillys had the part for $30 we changed it right there in the parking lot! Thank you sooooo much fr
Thanks for the troubleshooting video. Was able to fix the problem and now I can start my escape with the key instead of using the car starter. Pretty well detailed video. I spent $100 CAD on the part at a parts store because if it wasn't the issue, I wanted to return it. Well worth it because I was able to do it myself.
Best video out there on replacing a Ford ignition switch and for my 2010. Very detailed and well done on the video.
Glad it helped
Thank you for the video, I watched several videos but yours was spot on. Saved me a lot of money and time.
Very helpful video. Thanks for sharing the knowledge. I bought the part and replaced it in 20min. 👍🏼
Thankyou so much for this video. My 2008 fiesta was starting to take 10+ tries to start everything, was stressing me. Managed to do this replacement myself yesterday, took me a few hours in the end but it worked! Had to jump start the battery but now the key starts every time first time!
Thank you. Easy fix and solved the problem. So much easier then all the other listings on CZcams!
Glad I was able to help 😃
Thank you so much! The video doesn't cover my year or model, I have a 2013 Focus. BUT you still showed exactly what I needed to know. Thanks again.
should be about the same
You saved me bro. I replaced the starter and still nothing. Was about to sell the car, then I replaced this $30 piece and the escape started right up! Thanks again!
Great, helpful video. Thank you for describing every single step. It’s very important and the least little thing can throw you off but if someone does like you did and makes sure that they include everything it’s so very helpful. Thanks so much!!
Great video changed mine in under 20 mins just like you said you rock 🔥😎
🕊️God bless you!! It worked!! It was a tight fit, but we got it in there!! 😂
Did this today and was spot on. Thanks for the video!!!
Glad it helped!
Thank you! Fixed my problem! Was so easy the way you explained it that my 14 year old did it for me.
I broke a clip because one was stubborn, but thanks for providing the video. Now everyone can start my car again instead of me being the only one that knows how to start it.
Appreciate this video. I’ll be doing this tomorrow and hopefully fix my issue.
Let us know how it goes!
Issue resolved. Yes, I didn't push the wires all the way. Thank for the video.
Thank you for making this video. Very simple job and it has resolved the exact problem i was having with 2012 Ford Escape
I'm glad I was able to help
Did you have to reprogram your chipped key ?
Curious is it still working?
YOU ARE DA MAN thank you so much....
All the other vid's I was coming across were saying to yank the whole steering wheel and other components out in order to swap this switch. I wasn't making sense to me really as to why you'd have to remove all that stuff, it just seemed there should have been an easier way and low and behold you've got the answer here..
it's just in time too cause I about to get a gear puller to remove my steering wheel hahahaha but it's not necessary that's for sure.
Thanks again it's greatly appreciated
im glad I was able to help! 😀
So here's my update.. First off again thanks for the help it was most awesome.
Okay so I'm mechanically inclined been working on cars all my life so I knew once I learned how to remove the switch, it wouldn't be a difficult process for me and it wasn't. Anyone watching your vid can do this repair but here's the thing with me. I remove the switch and order a new one and it arrives and in it goes but NO START. I plug the old one back in to the electrical plug hanging out, stick a flathead in, turn it and the truck starts so it wasn't my switch after all. I removed the tumbler and had an allen key that fit inside that d-slot and I turned it but the truck still wouldn't start so It looks like ( at least in my case ) that I'm going to have to replace the whole assembly. For now though your great help allows me to at least drive my truck , although starting it I still have to use the screw driver with the switch that's hanging down.
Cheers again from Vancouver Island Canada
Tim
P.S. If anyone is doing what I'm doing, just remember you still have to turn the key into the one position when you start the truck.
@@GarageBoys I just re-watched your video and something caught my eye that I didn't do and maybe it's "WHY" my truck still isn't starting with the key. You had said here that when you clip the switch back in to have the key in the ignition so that little tit that sticks out aligns properly. I didn't do that so once the rain stops I'm going to give that a shot and hopefully it works and if so I'll post again. It's too bad I can't show a picture on here cause the little tit that sticks out on my truck isn't big and green/yellow in color like yours is, mine is just a much skinnier smaller tit that sticks out Hmmmm wonder if that's got something to do with it
Thanks man reliably starts right up now
Awesome video, just in the right time, my ignition key start doing that. All the other videos were more labor and time consuming.
Easier and cheaper than replacing my ignition switch for a Chevy. Better than passlock
You are a lifesaver ❤ Did the key trick for too long 😆
😆
Dam I just did it and it works now
Thank u
Thank u will be doing this to my friends car this weekend maybe
Thank you for showing me how easy this is. Gonna do it myself. 💪🏻🌸💞
Thank you for the help I just did mine using your video and it was super easy
Thanks! My sister has a 2011 and I am going to try it now!
Did you have luck? I have a 2011 Escape with the same problem
let us know how it went! 🙂
Brother, thank you for this video! Worked like a charm!
Curious is it still working?
Thank you man. This just got me back up and running
7/32 socket bro 😅 nice work
Great video, took me less than 30 minutes to change!
Curious is it still working?
Awesome video! Thank you so much! Love the way you explained everything
Cool, I was going to replace the entire look module. Lol, I only need to reply to this part
BEAUTIFUL! Thanks for Posting. 🎊Happy New Year 2024! 🎉
Wow Garage Boy!! YOU Are the MASTER! Thank you!
Im very glad I was able to help you out
Video helped me, SO proud of myself, female, single mom and fixed myself 😃 Cranks perfectly…UNTIL I put the lower steering column back on. Seems to be absolutely no reason for it not to crank, it’s hollow plastic attached w 3 screws! I have checked and REchecked everything. Had a friend triple check cannot figure it out! Even if I just hold it up, it wont start w cover HELP PLEASE
Thank you bro
Thank you so much. Your video helped me so much.
I followed these steps and installed a new ignition switch. Made sure it was properly clipped in place and also that the key was in the ignition when I installed it like you said. It for sure has helped because now I can start my car every time first time whereas before it took me many attempts. However, I still have to push the key in towards the ignition a bit before it starts. Is there anything secondary that could be causing this?
Great video
great job. thanks.
Sept 19th I just did it! Thanks 🙏 to and this video how too. I’m 💯forever grateful. ✌️😎
Glad I was able to help
Just ordered the part. Thanks!
Glad I was able to help and save you money 😊
Excellent tutorial
Great video, it worked like a charm.
Replaced ignition housing switch assembly on 2010 ford escape. Used same cylinder and keys. Car now cranks but no start. Car is recognizing key
Put on scanner and show immobilizer is on. Any ideas?
Thank you alot bro
Thank you for this video, about to try and replace mine, this is very helpful! I have a 2005 Ford Escape, was running fine then now starts randomly stalling and sometimes can't even start it (no clicking or anything) and I can't even get a reader to work after that. I've been able to get it going again by disconnecting the battery for a few then reconnecting and then it will run for a few minutes and die again. Sounds perfectly normal when it is running and not seeing any error codes on my reader. Stupid question, but can an ignition switch cause this type of problem?
Thank you.. you made easy breezy..
You are welcome!
Ford focus does the same thing. Would it be the same fix?
Thanks for the video! Does the replacement eventually wear out and result in the same problem? Or does this fix work indefinitely?
Would love if someone can weigh in on this
Do I need to program the key if I get the whole ignition with keys from a junkyard
Will this also cause the radio to stop working? My car starts fine but i noticed all accessories lose power after i remove the key ( even the odometer reading which is suppose to stay on is off)
I was worried with how hard this would be to the point I have been rednecking it for months using the command start to start the car and then putting the key in after but now I'm going to try and fix it properly as soon as my part comes in.
Good shit brother! Thank you
is it possible that if that part is bad, lights won't com on on dashboard? sometimes it does sometimes its not. sometimes it switches off the car complitly. and another strange thing is, in case there is no light on instrumental cluster, electronic power steering is still working. car if ford fusion se hybrid 2.0 from 2014
Thank you.
Thanks for a great video. I replaced it, and I had to replace the battery it was about 7yrs old and would not take a charge. I had been pushing the key in for bout 2yrs. Anyway, It still wont do anything. I checked both fuses, ignition and run start both are good.
I ordered the part on line about 30 bucks I think.
Any ideas?
I was able to replaced the switch thank you. Since I just purchased this 2012 Escape, I don't remember if the key switch had a play prior to replacing the switch. When I first started after the installation, the key did not return and I had to manually turn the key back a bit. Is this normal in the escape?
Does a new key have to be programed?
I have a 09 Ford escape. Is that model built the same way as the one in the video?
What happens when the keys got chip in it and the new ignition switch isn't programmed to the key?
How do you know it’s the ignition switch vs the key housing/cylinder from the other side?
That was awesome thanks
Same problem with my 2009 ford escape..changed the ignition switch still doesn't start..not sure if it's the housing..and we replaced the brake switch..cause the shift gear was getting stuck,now that works...still watching several videos..might remove the starter😮
There's another part in the column called the Ignition switch column lock housing part 9L8Z-3511-A that can be the culprit. Not expensive on ebay, like $30 - 34.00. There's a video by FordTechMakuloco called "2008-2012 Ford Escape No crank no start: ignition lock module replacement. It's 23:41 minutes long. If you check the comments on that video, there is supposedly a way to change that part without removing the steering wheel and air bag. Appears you must remove the signal light arm and a few more wires to get access.
Thank you for the video! What if you have a chipped key though??
No you don’t have to reprogram the key
Sadly didnt work for me. Back to square one of knowing nothing about whats wrong with this vehicle 😢
Chek you fuse
Question: in need of replacing ignition. Currently key is stuck in ignition. ... Will the key free up after installing box? Anyone experience that?
Thanks again- I'm ordering the part and doing it. Concerning the actual switch, do you have to press both ends at the same time and pull, or you can do it individually? I noticed you lowered the steering wheel but I didn't understand how you do that, can you explain?
Thanks a million
Hi, I’m glad my videos helped you fix your issue. You don’t have to make extra keys or anything else, this is a very very common issue on this vehicles. To respond to you questions, yes you can press them separately and not at the same time. And 2nd, you can adjust your steering of any car with the lever located it under it.
Hi! I do have kind of same issue like I put the key inside turn it and the car doesn't start, even if i push the key inside any thoughts what else it can be ? Thanks!
So i get everything tsken out and switches it but im having trouble clipping it back in now 😫
This didn’t work for me. However it was a good attempt, engine still doesn’t turn over and after I tried to turn the key once, the second time was very hard and the key almost doesn’t turn, I have to take it out again and try again. Any other recommended fixes to fix this symptom?
I did the replacement, but it cranked it over one time difficulty, and now it won’t? Did I possibly not get the switch lined up correctly?
Great video, I did everything step by step replacing the switch, but the car does not start. The dash lights came on, I can hear the gas pump working, but no crank, even when I pushed the key in a bit further. The part is from Rockauto, by Motorcraft. I will try the part you have used and see if it will make any difference. Any suggestions, did I missed anything?
It can be many things, have you checked you starter?
Yes, it is new, I have replaced it last year. I will try the one you have used and go from there. Thank you for your respond.@@GarageBoys
There's another part in the column called the Ignition switch column lock housing part 9L8Z-3511-A that can be the culprit. Not expensive on ebay, like $30 - 34.00.

Thank you @@kenito1967 I have replaced the lock housing and it worked. There is a video here a young men replacing it without removing the airbag. I can add the video if needed.
@@2010VIA .. sure, I'm curious to see it because I will be doing this job next week. I know how to remove the air bag and steering wheel, but I'd rather not if I don't have to.
What is the metal key pin that goes into the ignition switch called?!?!
I saw another video where the vehicle had the same issue. They way they fixed it is by replacing the whole ignition lock module. This method seems twice as easy. Are there any drawbacks of just replacing the switch (as done here) vs replacing the whole module?
no drawbacks, worse case scenario you replace it again in 1 year
What if i still need to push in on the key after changing? What would be the issue?
Thanks for asking that question because it appears there's 2 parts that can cause it not to start. The part that was replaced in this video. I think it's called the ignition switch OR what's called the entire ignition switch column lock housing. Part 9L8Z-3511-A. ... cost about $30 -34 on ebay.
There's a 23:41 minute video by FordTechMakuloco that's called 2008-2012 Ford Escape No crank no start:ignition lock module replacement. Like you said, if you replace the switch and you still have to push the key in, then it was the ignition lock module that had to be replaced. And if you read the comments on that video, there is a way to take it off WITHOUT removing the steering wheel. I think you remove the signal light arm to get better access and remove a few more wires to get access to all the screws that hold it on.
Man can you help me ..i just put in my new one and now am not getting nothing not a glick of trying to start...😢
Hi, can changing this switch cause the front and back wipers to not work? I changed the part following your video- thank you. Since I just purchased this car, I had not turn the front and back wipers- presently they are not working. I checked all the fuses and even changed the steering column switch with the turn signal unit with no luck.
Any tips in what to check will be appreciated.
This part won’t affect the wipers, it’s hard to diagnose over the internet but sounds like a wire issue… check wires from wipers to relay
Thank you, will do.
Sounds like you took off the wire harness to the wiper arm and didn't fully plug it back in.
Great video! I removed it quickly and removed another from a pull n save lot. It didn’t solve my issue, but it still was a necessary replacement. Thanks for giving a girl some confidence ❤
not sure what i did but now the car makes the beeping noise when i take the key out of the ignition and no, the lights arent on i checked that
Stuck Between Trying This Or The Fuel Pump Relay or a Fuse PLEASE HELP!?!?😅😅😅
