How to Replace Ignition Lock Cylinder 05-09 Chevrolet Equinox

in today's video I will show you how to remove and install the ignition lock cylinder for your Chevrolet Equinox. In the video I'm actually unable to remove the ignition lock cylinder because I was not able to get the key to turn to accessory position. As long as you can get your key to turn to accessory position you will be able to press the button and remove the lock cylinder. Also I've been told this ignition lock cylinder has to be programmed to the car or at least the key with the new ignition switch cylinder has to. to program a new key to the car requires a shop scan tool or taking your car to the dealership or local automotive locksmith. also there is a recall on this car to replace the ignition lock cylinder if it's causing a safety issue where the key comes out in other gears other than Park. If it is now broken beyond that they may not cover under the recall but it's worth calling the Chevrolet dealership to check.
