Ignition Problems: When to Call a Locksmith
Key Won’t Turn in the Ignition
If your key refuses to turn, it could be a worn-out key, steering wheel lock, or a failing ignition cylinder. Forcing it may cause further damage, so call a locksmith right away.
Car Starts Then Stalls
An ignition switch problem can cause your car to start but stall immediately. This may indicate faulty wiring or a failing electrical connection inside the ignition.
Key Stuck in Ignition
If your key gets stuck after turning off the engine, it could be due to a faulty ignition lock cylinder. A locksmith can safely remove the key and repair or replace the cylinder.
Ignition Feels Loose
A wobbly or loose ignition switch is a sign of wear and can eventually prevent your car from starting. Locksmiths can tighten or replace the ignition before it fails completely.
