I spent all day cussing what was supposed to be a 15 minute fix. The key lock cylinder on the suv wore out After watchig a few youtube videos I picked one up from Napa and went about changing it out. I wiggled the key till it turned, unhooked the battery cable and tore the column apart. turned the switch to the start position poked a ice pick in the home pressed the keeper down and slid it out easily so far so good in just a few minutes. I went to put the new one in it slid half way and stopped. I twisted pushed wiggled and began to curse as the slide out slide in easy peasy fix began to fall apart. After trying for a half hour I decided maybe a light greasing would help another half our and a busted knuckle and still no go. Well to heck with it I'l just put the old one back and jimmy the lock and bring it to the shop monday. Nope the old one wouldn't go in either. Back to you tube several videos lter they all said its so easy and showed calm cool guys popping out the old and slipping in the new no worries. GRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!! Finally while looking in the hole with a flash light i noticed the key part in the back had turned slightly.; Stuck my pinky in the hole turned it back and in se went no problem 4 hours into the fix. Time I got to the Piggy wiggy they were sold out of everything. luckily we had a lil cabbage black eyes and corn bread makings home. With the way today went I am gonna eed all the help I can get for the next year.
