How to Unstick a Suzuki Ignis Key Suzuki's funky and affordable city car is getting a midlife refresh. It's not a hot hatch, but it is able to eat roads in rural and urban areas with ease, and its handy turning circle makes city driving easy. The new model also packs smart safety and driver assistance technology with features like lane departure alerts and a drowsiness alert that is a welcome addition to long drives. Steering Lock The steering lock is a crucial security feature to prevent your Ignis from being taken away while it's in drive. It's a crucial safety feature, but it can be frustrating when you have to go somewhere and you can't unlock the wheel. There are fortunately, a few easy things you can try to fix the issue. First, determine if the ignition switch is in the “on” position. If you're sure, try to turn the key in the direction you were turning before the wheel locked up. It can be tricky, but it's usually enough to unlock the wheel. If the wheel does not unlock If it doesn't, you can spray a tiny amount of canned air into the ignition cylinder to help lubricate it. Wear eye protection to avoid getting cannisters of air in your face. Liquid graphite can also be used to help lubricate the cylinder. If none of these solutions work you'll have to replace the ignition assembly. Fortunately, this is an easy part to locate at any auto parts store. Be sure to buy an exact replacement and compare it with the old one. Also, be sure to take off the cover covering the ignition so you can inspect the assembly. Worn The steering lock can cause the ignition switch to get stuck. This is a security feature designed to prevent your Ignis from spinning away while the engine is running. If this happens, turning the steering wheel can free it. As time passes, the Ignis keys can wear out and become difficult to turn. It may not happen as often as a bad switch, but it can happen. If this is the case, you must replace your key. You should also check if there's obstructions to your Ignis key from entering the ignition cylinder. There can be dirt or debris that can get stuck inside the ignition cylinder and block it from turning. In the end, you can try a little lubrication to see if that helps. There are a variety of lubricant you could purchase, so check out your garage or at a local auto parts store to find one that can work. A silicon “glow-in-the-dark” key cover is a different option. These covers absorb light and release it when in dark or hazy conditions. They also protect your key or fob from wear and wear and tear. They are available on many Suzuki models and can be bought online or at an Suzuki dealership near you. Bent With time and frequent use, a key could be bent. This could cause the teeth of the key to not connect with the lock cylinder in the same manner and stop the key from turning in the ignition. If this is the case, the key will need to be replaced. If you have spare keys, it's best to have it duplicated and store it in a safe place. The cylinder for ignition can wear out. If the internal lock pins become stuck or stuck the cylinder may be unable to allow keys from going all the way in or out of the cylinder. Replacing the cylinder can solve this issue, but it's best to do it before the key gets stuck in the ignition to prevent further damage. If your Ignis key is stuck even after trying the simple fixes, it may be time to consider lubricating the cylinder. Graphite or liquid graphite could assist the lock pins in being able to move more freely, and thus free your key from binds. You can find this in most auto parts stores. When applying the lubricant, make sure your Ignis is in park. Don't attempt to manhandle it to unbind it. G28 Car Keys could lead you to more serious problems. Broken If you've tried everything else to get a key off, but it still won’t move then your last option is to try a oil. You can buy some of this from your local auto parts store and apply it to the inside of the cylinder that controls the ignition using a cotton ball or a rag. Try again. Move the key forwards and backwards gently to spread out the lubricant. You can try rubbing it forward but be careful not to press too hard or you could break it in the cylinder. The key's internal circuitry may also be unresponsive due to age and usage. It's not as common however, and you'll need make a duplicate key. The case of the case of your Suzuki key fob may get damaged or worn. This is more prevalent when you use a cheaper replica keyfob with the shell being made of plastic or rubber.
