• Q: How to replace the ignition lock cylinder on 2006 Chevrolet Equinox?

  A: When removing the Ignition Lock Cylinder, make sure the vehicle is in park before beginning. Start with disconnecting the negative Battery Cable and disabling the sir system. Remove the steering column trim covers, next, place the key into the ignition and turn it until it reaches the run condition and retturn the ignition cylinder back to the acc state. Use a long, thin pick-like tool to press the button that holds the locking mechanism in, located on the side of the ignition module assembly, enabling you to slide the lock cylinder out of the assembly for the ignition housing. For installation, we must ensure that the igniter blade inside the ignition module is in the acc unlock. If it is rotated, rotate it with needle nose pliers. It should also be noted that when a new lock cylinder is installed, follow the sub-key key and lock cylinder coding. Enter the key into the Ignition Lock Cylinder and put it into the lock housing, then turn the lock cylinder to ensure it is not stuck. Install the steering column trim covers, activate the sir system as well as reconnect the negative Battery Cable.
