IGNITION LOCK / IGNITION SWITCH ASSEMBLY

An ignition lock is a component of the vehicle starting system designed to activate electrical circuits, unlock the steering column, and start the engine. It connects the ignition key with both the mechanical and electrical starting system and plays a key role in vehicle security.

The ignition lock is installed in the steering column or dashboard and operates together with the electrical switch, immobilizer, engine control unit, and steering lock mechanism. In modern vehicles, it may include electronic modules, an immobilizer antenna, and key recognition systems.

A faulty ignition lock may cause the key to jam, prevent key rotation, stop the engine from starting, cut electrical power, trigger immobilizer faults, or cause intermittent ignition failure.

Our catalog includes ignition locks for many vehicle brands. Available options include genuine factory assemblies, reliable aftermarket replacements, and tested used units without housing damage. Locks with electrical switch, steering lock, key sets, and immobilizer-compatible versions are available.

Used parts are inspected for mechanical function, electrical contact condition, key retention, and absence of excessive play.

Selection is available by VIN number, key type, part number, starting system configuration, and vehicle year. Replacing a faulty ignition lock restores proper engine start operation and vehicle security.
