Phil H 4 Posted December 14, 2021 Report Share Posted December 14, 2021 I have just removed the steering lock /ignition switch as looking at the barrel someone in the past had been using a screwdriver to start the car and finally the thing is jammed. Is it possible to replace just the barrel as the unit is about £80, and is it possible to get just the barrel. Not sure how to remove the barrel but it looks as if there is a small plate on one side of the unit. Guidance as always much appreciated. Phil Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KiwiTR6 Posted December 14, 2021 Report Share Posted December 14, 2021 Look for a small hole that allows you to insert a stiff piece of wire or similar (I'm assuming it may have one) and push firmly while also trying to pull the lock assembly out. Most switches have locks that can be replaced in this way, yours may or may not. I've marked on one of your pics what appears to be such a hole. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
