Title: ignition switch
Post by: Phantom on July 06, 2005, 04:44:11 AM
G'day all ,
              The ignition switch in my car will turn and start the car without a key, can this be fixed or do i need another ignition switch?
                              Cheers Rusty

Rusty,

Sounds like a worn lock barrel, replacements are available new from Rares or a locksmith might be able to fix it for you.

Cheers,

Craig.

Rusty, does it go into the lock position?
All FC locks will go from off to on to start without the key
It only wont go from lock to off without the key.
