New video, Very informative. Just had my column tube replaced and now me 02 f250 won’t start. Skinny key no chip. Is there a wrong way to put the ignition cylinder in? Like upside down? I’m getting a crank no anti theft blinking lights.
I ordered a new cylinder from ford for my 03 excursion there going to rekey it with my key I already have for the truck so will it need reprogrammed or will I just be able to slap it in and start it or will they have to program it
So if i ordered a lock cylinder that doesnt have a chip, your saying it should work? Or how did you reprogram a key with no chip so you truck could read it
This is a good video. Did you make the programming video for this truck? I have a F-250 with a bad cylinder switch. I gotta put a new one in but don't understand how to program the truck after that to the new keys.
there is a small wire that is semi circular that fits into the top of the lock sleeve. it appear to be loose and creates a battery draining short. would you know if i might be missing a containing ring to hold this wire and electrical contact in the cylinder and sleeve ?
a friend of mine started his with no key in it and now we can't get the key cylinder back in. how do you get disk in bottom of cylinder tube to realign to put new cylinder back in?
Love your video. I have a 2010 Madza 6. The ignition acts as if it has an intermittent short. When it is not working there is no power to head lights, radio, instrument panel, power locks or windows. Total electrical system shut down. Could this be the ignition switch? Help Jake from Portsmouth, VA
This video is replacing the ignition lock cylinder not the actual ignition switch. It does sound like you need an ignition switch though. Or even a loose/corroded battery cable end.
Someone tried stealing my Excursion and distroed the ignition switch so I am unable to turn it to the on position to remove to old one. Do you have any thoughts on how to remove the bad one?
Sir I lost my key to my mustang 2000 and I need to move my car before they tow it for being parked long. So how do I start my car with out my key its not chiped
Can you remove the lock and not leave the power on? Example: remove the lock, use screwdriver to turn vehicle off, go to a parts store the next morning, get a new lock, and come back to replace? Could a screwdriver do that? And start the vehicle (without PATS) too?
I don't believe you can. The ignition has to be "on" to remove it and you obviously can't move it back to "off" after it is removed. Of course you can simply disconnect your batteries negative cable and that will kill the power to the truck to prevent the batteries from being drawn down.
Good video. Someone tried to steal my 2001 F250 super-duty and tore-up my ignition switch but failed to steal it. I’ve been trying to install a new switch but every time I install the new one the key will not release. It starts and turns off but the stays Locked in the cylinder. The new cylinder came with a “caution” warning not to rotate the key clockwise until the lock cylinder is installed into the steering column”. There is no way to insert the new cylinder without Turning the key to “ on “ position the new cylinder. Has anyone had this problem and found a solution ?
So take off battery cable Turn in run position Press button and pull out ignition Put in new ignition in run position Replace batt cable Hope you dont need transponder programming? Any way to know about whether I need one or not before this project? 91 Lincoln Town Car Thanks
@@christophercostas02 I ended up drilling it out completely. If you take the top plastic off there's a cylinder about the size of a pencil, if you can pop that to come straight up, you can get the steering wheel to move but you might have to drill a bit.
@@darlamuehlmann2263 You must force it over to ACC either by picking it over or forcing it over with a screw driver, unless you drill out the retainer pin
There shouldn’t be a pats transponder ring on a 2001. I had a 2000 Ford Excursion Limited Edition that had a chip / pats transponder ring. What model Ford do you have?
I guess you could say I didn't get the Tumblr out because I didn't remove it in one piece but I'll tell you right now whenever I was stuck in the woods and whenever a buggy pulled up I dropped the keys somewhere but before he could even bring them cuz he found them right where we got in the truck needless to say I done took a screwdriver but then barbed wire pliers and I beat that b****** guts out all I had to do was pop the very end off and then you could just push the thing forward with screwdriver

@@iPhone_tek mine ended up needing the key re coded. Something is still messed up, I took the plastic ring out of it, held on key on it and used the other key to turn the cylinder and start it. Still like that to this day, I have one key zip tied to the plastic piece under the dash

If the old cylinder had the transponder key would you have to reprogram it or would it already be programmed

Can you install a transponder key and cylinder in an older truck? I have a 2002 f350 that didn't have one originally
What's the trick to removing the old tumbler when the no longer will turn the switch to on ?
So if i ordered a lock cylinder that doesnt have a chip, your saying it should work? Or how did you reprogram a key with no chip so you truck could read it
Hey bud do you have a video of how to change the transponder? Thanks
I’m doing one on a 06 mustang gt how do I remove the ignition without a key
Thank you
I appreciate you positive feed back.
Can you replace the lock cylinder with a transponder style?
This is a good video. Did you make the programming video for this truck? I have a F-250 with a bad cylinder switch. I gotta put a new one in but don't understand how to program the truck after that to the new keys.
forscan with the cable you buy from ebay
there is a small wire that is semi circular that fits into the top of the lock sleeve. it appear to be loose and creates a battery draining short. would you know if i might be missing a containing ring to hold this wire and electrical contact in the cylinder and sleeve ?
It just slides in a little slot. It senses the key, it goes to the chime.
What if I don't have the key. That's why I'm changing the ignition
I used forscan
No idea but my key slid out while started and can be taken out after I got the ignition switch out so it did help with that atleast
Maybe break the thing to where it can start without one
Literally my thought
a friend of mine started his with no key in it and now we can't get the key cylinder back in. how do you get disk in bottom of cylinder tube to realign to put new cylinder back in?

Can you replace a switch that has a transponder to one that does not when they go bad?
No you can’t change the switch to a non-transponder. It is linked to the “ECM” electronic control module which is your main computer for your car.
@@alley55customs93 thank you so much for the help. We hoping we could. Glad we asked.
how were you able to turn the ignition with out the key? I prefer a bypass and I lock my car with a bar anyway. Undriveable with the lock.
In the beginning of the vid he mentioned it was broken. He could turn it without the key
Could you swap the ignition switch with a non transponder switch without effecting the vehicle?
So take off battery cable
Turn in run position
Press button and pull out ignition
Put in new ignition in run position
Replace batt cable
Hope you dont need transponder programming?
Any way to know about whether I need one or not before this project?
91 Lincoln Town Car Thanks
Can someone tell me how to do this repair if the ignition cylinder won’t turn to the run position. The steering wheel is not locked. It is stuck.
Drill the lock out carefully don't break the bit off nto the lock
99 mercury grand marquee replaced ignition switch cranks but won’t start
Also now the chime goes off when I open the door even though I removed the key
So, what was it doing before you replaced the ignition? Signs / Symptoms? What prompted you to replace the ignition?
I put the new switch, but I can't take the key out... what happened??
Do u have to buy the ignition from the dealership?
It's better to buy from O Riellys or Auto Zone because. The one from the dealership you have to put it together
Sir can you send me the video on how to reprogram keys
Ok I don’t have a key . X what do I do
So what happens if you don't have a key and you want to replace the cylinder?
im trying to figure out the same....any luck with yours?

Is there a chip in the 2001 Key
There shouldn’t be a pats transponder ring on a 2001. I had a 2000 Ford Excursion Limited Edition that had a chip / pats transponder ring. What model Ford do you have?
My original transponder key was lost and the original cylinder was destroyed. What's next ? 04 expedition.

What if you can't turn the tumbler at all?
You insert you key and turn it,then push the pin and pull it out,very simple
@@dvader3000what if the key is missing?
The problem with mine is that the key no longer works after 465,000 miles, so I can't turn to on position to push the detent button
How do i get it out without a key
Engine would continue to run with key remooved
Did the switch but the key won't come out😮 my luck.
What happens if the key is missing?
I want to know the same thing
Me too
Drill it
😮 what you ant got the keys
You never followed up on the how-to program transponder keys!
What happens if I don’t have a key…I lost it
