Broken Key in Ignition

Featured Replies

We recently acquired a 92 Loyale sedan that has the key broken off in the ignition.

How should I get the cylinder off or get the key out?

 

Thanks

Ok, Got the key out, now we just need to find a way to get another key.
That part is easy. Some dealers still can make you an original key from the VIN number (bring your ID and proof of ownership). If that doesn't work, remove the door card from the passenger side front door and gain access to the door lock cylinder. Using a flashlight and mirror copy the key number off the cylinder (something like W334) and take it to a quality locksmith who can make a master key from that number.

...Also you can...

...and Take the Whole Lock Cylinder to a Locksmith; I did That Long time ago and Worked Very well.

 

That Works 'cos the Locksmith uses the Actual position of the Lock Cylinder to Cut a Whole New Key, with the Advantage of Testing it Right There.

 

Kind Regards.
