The advantage of the Kia Spectra Ignition Lock Cylinder is to give drivers direct control of engine start and to deter theft from the vehicle using a keyed tumbler that is operated solely by the correct blade. In every Spectra generation maintaining a steering column switch, the Ignition Lock Cylinder connects mechanically to the ignition switch to send battery power in the START position to the starter, in the ACC position to components, or to cut power in the OFF or LOCK positions where it also clamps the steering wheel and holds the shifter in the Park position. Beginning in the late 1980s, many Kia cars came equipped with a coded key that communicates with the computer; this improvement to the system means that even if someone managed to yank the Ignition Lock Cylinder or twist the switch, the engine remains silent until the chip code matches. Earlier Spectra models were based on a simple metal key and thus the difference between key and chip security is the chief divide between styles. As the main enemy remains wear as the blades and wafers inside the Ignition Lock Cylinder grind down causing hard turns, stalls, or no-crank issues, timely care ensures every Kia Spectra is always starting smoothly, including the Ignition Lock Cylinder.
