Disassembly

1
If your car is equipped with an air bag you must disconnect it before servicing any part of the steering column. Also disconnect the negative battery cable.

Remove the steering wheel and steering column covers to give better access to the ignition switch. Then remove the combination switch.

3
Disconnect the wiring harness from the ignition switch.

4
If necessary, lower the steering column.

5
The ignition switch is installed on the steering column using special screws. These screws have heads that are designed to break off during installation. Use the appropriate-sized drill bit to drill out the old screws.

Pull the ignition switch out of the steering column.

Installation

7
Slide the new ignition switch into the steering column and tighten the new screws until the heads break off.

Tips & Warnings
The new ignition lock will use a different key than the one for your doors and trunk. If you want them all to use the same key, you'll have to get a matched set and replace all the locks together.
