Ignition switch problem
« on: 13 February 2009, 12:30:47 »

I  have a problem with the ignition switch again last year I had to replace the ignition switch barrel as the end had sheared off and was not turning the contact block
 I went to leave work yesterday and the same thing has happened again its sheared off in the same place .
 The lock was not tight or anything is it just bad luck or something more sinister .
 Any ideas anyone . The one I fitted was genuine part and brand new if that makes any difference  :y

If you have had the part under 12 months then first port of call would be back to the dealer you brought the part from.

if under 12 months it should be under warranty but you will needn the orginal invoice
