95 % chance its your lock cylinder.

the ignition switch is located down by the firewall and

could not hang up the show.

there could be a problem beyond the lock cylinder but within

the column?

I was just worried about setting off the airbag and didn`t want to crawl

all under the dash

incase it was the ignition switch at the bottom of the column.

Title: Leave Your Car ALONE
Date: Thu, 24 Sep 2009 10:50:00 +0000
Author: founditsharedit

I have to worry about some car owners. It’s not like you buy a car without due consideration as to how it looks and whether you’re happy with what driving it says about you. Why, then, do people do this:

stupid-cars-decorate-2

Seriously, did their to-do list for the day read “buy Volvo estate, spray gold, get out maarker pen, prang it” ?

Or this one -was it a case of pop down to Sussex, buy a Suzuki Swift, drop by Halfords for a nice macho interior and remove any questions about a) your favourite colour and b) does anybody want a lift?
