Misleading title says, How to remove ignition lock cylinder-immobilizer antenna. Shows nothing about how to remove the antenna from the lock.

[@ricardoserrano2636]

This just solved My problem with my Jetta. Thank you sooo much. This has been stressing me out. Broken key was stuck in the ignition. Got it out with this vid in maybe 2 mins.

[@Servicetutorials]

Thank you for the feedback! 👍

[@mc8ird]

My key would not turn to on position. Turn the key and hold tension on it while tapping on wheel lock with hammer. Locking lever inside will not fully depress until both holes line up. I also left clip in place while re-installing into new housing. My OEM ignition housing was hard to turn at first. Some people say not to but I had to cycle the housing, with a flat head, thru Acc, On, and off a few times to free it up. Just put it back in the ON position before re-installing the lock. Pay attention to the position of the start switch too.

Do you need VCDS along with a PIN code to reprogram keys? Or can you reprogram them by inserting the key in the ignition while holding the unlock button.

Any tip for when the key won't turn to ON position? It only turns 1/3 way, so the PIN won't insert all the way yet

What if my key doesn’t turn all the way anymore. Is there still a way to remove this part?

[@elcapitan6605]

sama here, I cannot turn my key all the way to ON position anymore.. I messed up something with the pin, i believe..

[@celinaxoxo4444]

El Capitan so what I ended up doing was grabbing a screw driver that didn’t fit into the hole all the way and I hammered it down pretty hard and the gears or whatever is in there came loose and my key was able to turn after that. Once I was able to turn it I did what he said it the video and then I flushed it out with WD-40 until the part was clean.

[@celinaxoxo4444]

El Capitan also when I did it I was fully prepared to just buy a new part completely so I banged pretty hard but I didn’t mess anything up bc the screw driver wasn’t small enough to fit all the way in.

Hello. I have a 2017 GTI (tiptronic) and the key won't twist. It rotates a little, but then stops and feels like a solid stop. The headliner lights and radio turn on, but nothing else. I have wiggled the key, turned the steering wheel, etc., but no luck. The shifter also will not let me shift into neutral. I can remove the key will remove from the ignition. Will the paperclip work to release the cylinder? Tomorrow I will try pressing the manual release for the Shift Lock and disconnecting and reconnecting the battery. Any ideas are much appreciated.

U have to use a small dremel tool to make a groove on top of the screw so u can use a flathead screwdriver to unscrew it. OR, use a small pointed cold chisel and a hammer. Place tip of cold chisel on right side of the screw head and tap with a hammer so it unscrews it

You’ll remove the ignition barrel and then you dissasemble it.

If the steering wheel lock gets engaged during this process you'll have to remove it all. Most important thing is disconnect the battery first so you don't activate the antitheft bullshit

You just make something very easy look difficult. You forgot to show the key in the on position first . The hole you put the pin down often lines up with a corresponding dot mark on the barrel outer surround. (Transponder ring) Easier videos throughout KZbin to follow.

[@sallyholdren3013]

Thank you for this. I struggled with it for quite a while until I read your comment about lining the hole up with the dot. After I did this, it came right out. Why didn't they say or show this in the video?

At 45 seconds the words "turn the key to the on position" is written on the screen!

[@pujo28]

Any advice on reinstalling the cylinder. I put key in on position. I steered paper clip. It goes in but doesn’t allow me to turn the key on or off. I lined up the housing to accept the cylinder as well. I tried it in all 3 positions. Off on and started up. Maybe it’s the Amazon part that isn’t good. Might buy a better one online
