igntion replacement

Give SheffLOCK Auto Locksmith a call if your vehicle needs a full ignition replacement.

Here at SheffLOCK Auto Locksmith we can undertake full Ignition Replacements if your current ignition is damaged or your key is stuck.

It sounds like you're having trouble with your car's ignition.

Here's what you should know about ignition replacement:

  • Key won't turn: This is a common sign of a problem with the ignition lock cylinder.
  • Key gets stuck: If your key is difficult to remove or gets stuck in the ignition, it could indicate wear or damage to the cylinder.
  • Car won't start: Even if the key turns, a faulty ignition switch or other component could prevent the engine from cranking.
  • Intermittent starting: The car starts sometimes but not others, suggesting an electrical issue in the ignition system.
  • Unusual noises: Clicking or grinding sounds when trying to start the car could point to a problem with the starter motor or other ignition components.

What to do if you suspect an ignition problem:

  • Don't force anything: If the key won't turn, don't try to force it. This could cause further damage.
  • Check the basics: Make sure your car battery is charged and that there are no loose connections to the starter motor.

Ignition replacement options:

  • Ignition lock cylinder: This is the part where you insert the key. It may need to be replaced if it's worn or damaged.
  • Ignition switch: This electrical component sends the signal to start the engine. If it fails, your car won't start.
  • Starter motor: This motor cranks the engine. If it's faulty, your car may not start or may make a clicking sound.

Important notes:

  • Security: In some cases, replacing the ignition lock cylinder may require reprogramming the car's computer to recognise the new key.
  • DIY vs. professional: While some ignition repairs can be done at home, it's often best to leave it to a professional like SheffLOCK Auto Locksmith, especially if it involves electrical components or security systems.
