IGNITION SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The electrical ignition switch is located on the steering column. It is used as the main on/off switching device for
most electrical components. The mechanical key cylinder is used to engage/disengage the electrical ignition switch.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - IGNITION SWITCH
ELECTRICAL DIAGNOSIS
For ignition switch electrical schematics, Refer to the appropriate section for the component.
MECHANICAL DIAGNOSIS (KEY DIFFICULT TO ROTATE)
Vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission and a floor mounted shifter: a cable is used to connect the
interlock device in the steering column assembly, to the transmission floor shift lever. This interlock system is used
to lock the transmission shifter in the PARK position when the key cylinder is rotated to any position. If the ignition
key is difficult to rotate to or from any position, it may not be the fault of the key cylinder or the steering column
components. The brake transmission shift interlock cable may be out of adjustment. (Refer to 21 - TRANSMISSION/
TRANSAXLE/AUTOMATIC - 30RH/GEAR SHIFT CABLE - ADJUSTMENTS). The interlock system within the steer-
ing column is not serviceable. If repair is necessary, the steering column assembly must be replaced. (Refer to 19
- STEERING/COLUMN - REMOVAL).
Vehicles equipped with a manual transmission and a floor mounted shifter: on certain models, a button is
located on the steering column behind the ignition key cylinder. The button must be manually depressed to allow
rotation of the ignition key cylinder to any position. If it is difficult to rotate the key to any position, the lever mech-
anism may be defective. This mechanism is not serviceable. If repair is necessary, the steering column assembly
must be replaced. (Refer to 19 - STEERING/COLUMN - REMOVAL).
REMOVAL
The ignition key must be in the key cylinder for cylin-
der removal. The key cylinder must be removed first
before removing ignition switch.
