How do you remove and install the ignition switch and key lock cylinder for the Kia Sportage?

To start up the SEPHIA AND SPECTRA models, first of all, you need to take out the steering column covers. Pull the two halves of the electrical connector away from each other by pressing the top of the release tab and remove the electrical connector for the lock cylinder buzzer. Because the ignition lock cylinder housing is welded to the steering column at three points of a shear-head bolt, use a center punch to mark these points, then drill a hole in the center of each bolt with a 3/16-inch (5 mm) drill bit and unscrew them with a screw extractor. Pull out the keys and take off the ignition switch/ignition lock cylinder from the steering column. As a final step before turning in the new shear-head bolts, start the vehicle and make sure that the steering wheel lock mechanism is proper and the ignition key turns properly in the lock cylinder after that tighten the bolts up to the point where the heads shear off. For the SPORTAGE models only and depending on the model trim, disconnect knee bolster trim panel and two pieces of the steering column covers. Insert the key into the ignition and turn it to the ACC position, insert an awl or a small screwdriver between the cylinder stem and the lock base and apply pressure towards the back of the car to gently push out the lock pin and firmly pop out the ignition lock cylinder. Pull out the IGN electrical connector, unbolt the Ignition switch screw, and set the IGN switch aside. Installation is the reverse of removal, in that the components are put in place according to the reverse of this sequence.

Kia Sportage Ignition Lock Cylinder

Kia Sportage Ignition Lock Cylinder secures the vehicle by making sure that the right key is applied to start the car and to access the car components to avoid unwanted movement or theft. Early generations of Sportage applied a metal Ignition Lock Cylinder on the steering column, which took a cut metal key. When turned to ACC, ON, or START, it caused battery power to flow to radios, windows, and the starter, as well as unlocking the steering wheel and shift lever. This mechanical design involves internal wafer tumblers that are aligned with the key grooves, and when the Ignition Lock Cylinder gets stuck due to wear, the key can get stuck, and the engine can stall or lights may flicker on rough pavement. In the 2000s, Kia also introduced a chipped, coded key that still turns a physical Ignition Lock Cylinder but requires computer authorization before fuel and spark are released, preventing theft even when the metal components are forced. Current Sportage drivers may also witness more change, as newer Sportage models are replacing the old Ignition Lock Cylinder with a push button start to allow loyal Kia owners to keep a fob in their pocket and leave the start stop duty to the electronics to reduce fuel use, thereby increasing convenience throughout the Kia lineup.

If you're in search of top-notch, reasonably priced OEM Kia Sportage Ignition Lock Cylinder, then you've found the perfect spot. Our website boasts an extensive inventory of Kia Sportage Ignition Lock Cylinder, all priced at the market's premier price. Rest assured, every genuine part we offer comes with a warranty straight from the manufacturer.
