Response to "If your car/truck key won't turn here's a quick fix"

This is my response to the original video:
• if your Car/Truck Key ...
In which a rubber mallet is used to "fix" an ignition lock cylinder.
Will it work for me?

[@Shanonmcnab576]

Here's a tip and it works every time. Turn the steering wheel a tiny bit to one direction as you turn the key. It fires right up every time.

This man is a Godsend. Me and my grandfather sat in our car for almost an hour trying to fix it. We ran out of ideas and stumbled upon this video. Cannot thank you enough!

That makes me very happy, Jacob! Glad to hear it!

Incredible. My Escalade ignition has never failed to turn and all of a sudden I’m stranded. And of all things I just happened to have a rubber mallet. 3 taps with no key in it and it turned perfectly. Thanks Happy Guy!

[@KarleeBoohoo]

I had to fight an unruly, know it all husband, who doesn't use KZbin, and is not caught up on todays technology, (smart phones and internet). I literally had to beg him to let me try this after he'd been trying nearly an hour to crank the truck. It didn't happen the first few swipes. I figured he was expecting me to fail or even tear something up, so, I hit everything with the mallet, and got it to crank. Mr. Know-it-all proceeded to tell me why it worked and started talking in car part language. I realized he wasn't gonna give me so much as a "thanks" or even a nod to another KZbin success, so, I turned the ignition off before exiting the truck. Just sitting here waiting for him to come to me for help.

[@youjeltrevo]

Karlee! This is one of the greatest comments this video will ever see.

[@KarleeBoohoo]

@@youjeltrevo 😄😄, thanks! I'm pretty sure it's just time for me to get rid of it and get a newer model.... not the truck, but, the husband, 😬😏.

[@scraycee6438]

You just saved me. I have been stuck at Home Depot for an hour with the key not turning. A Desperate KZbin search pulled you up, and it turned after the first tap with a wrench. Thank you!!

[@youjeltrevo]

I truly enjoyed this comment. So glad to hear that was the case.

[@drgruvloch]

Thanks for your video... It was 1:00am when I got my van stuck in the mud. I was jumping in and out of the van trying to get the van unstuck... throwing gravel, rocks, small logs under the tires to get it out... I was close to getting out of the hole...When I jumped in the van to try one more time... and my ignition was "locked" up... Spent the night in the van. In the morning I found your video... but did not have a rubber mallet, as I was out in the bush.... so I used a rock to spank the keyhole. Free at Last!!! Thanks

[@johnphilpott9603]

Omg, after messing with this issue for an hour, finally looked it up and watched this video. Hit it with the end of a screw driver twice and immediately worked. Life saver.

[@arnaldosehwerert224]

It works! A couple of wacks solved the problem. I will be changing the cylinder this week but at least I can drive the car. Thanks!

[@eyesalooking]

Something I learned while trying to solve the "key won't turn" problem. Diagnosis steps: 1 Did the key refuse to turn before you turned steering wheel to full lock position? This is what happened to me. Then I went to KZbin and did all of the suggestions that did not work. Just before I got ready to replace the ignition switch (plastic dod-dad under the dash) I thought that I had better try my spare keys. Bingo. It was the key after all. I had been having trouble with my door locks also and this solved that problem also. Thanks for posting this. I did try doing it smacking on the key but it did not work.

[@chuckmitchell7193]

thanks for taking one for the team. my next step would’ve been to tear down the steering column too but didn’t have to because you showed me that tapping on the cylinder released The switch. even had a rubber mallet handy. you spent hours but because of your video it took me 38 seconds.

[@youjeltrevo]

Chuck, this is great news and I sure appreciate you taking the time to share this! God bless the rubber mallet, and this is 38 seconds well invested!

Wow, thank you so much!! This worked for me too. Was so frustrated and hitting it with a real hammer was amazing. And it turned and we were able to start the truck. I am so happy I found your video. Thanks again!

[@azthundercloud]

Thanks!!! My truck left me stranded, then i found this video. Went back the next day armed with my mallet. 3 Hard wacks and it started right up. Now i carry a mallet in all my vehicles.

[@robertmerrill621]

Before risking causing more damage than necessary try what has worked for me on three different trucks (Chevy) over the years. With the key in, apply gentle turning pressure to hold the key in place and push/pull the key in and out rapidly. You may find the key will turn without having strike the apparatus with a hammer (or any other suggested weapon of destruction). May work for you. May not. But a good, easy, first try. Once I had the key turning by doing this I shot a little WD40 in the key slot and with additional jiggling of the key as described I found the key cylinder would, after a while, operate at near normal. Never had to replace the cylinder in any of the three trucks ('03, 04, and '07 Silverados) to this day.

[@Eyecytubes]

Worked perfectly I'm so thankful for your post. I been stuck on a jobsite for an hour and this worked immediately. Your the proverbial MAN!!

Just bought my son a 98 Silverado and before we got home we discovered that we have this issue thank God for this video

[@PhoebeKai]

I’m a 68 year old Gramma in California who drives a 98 Lex LS 300. On New Year’s Day, the trunk packed with goodies, I hopped into the car, stuck the key in the ignition, and it would not turn. So I sat there crying. UNFAIR! I’m missing dinner with my grandkids! I looked up all sorts of fixes, tried many things, & got no where. At 5AM this morning, with a new attitude I ran out to try the key again. Key would not turn. Now my Rottie puppy was also crying, missing her romp at the dog park. Finally I went went to You Tube. Nah, I don’t think THAT will work, or THAT, & definitely NOT THAT, and then scrolling down I found YOU and immediately wanted to see how you fared in your Response. You were definitely doubtful, but then so HAPPY when it actually worked! So, I ran out again, this time with my little hammer. Whack! It worked for me too! Thanks so much for having faith while doubting, for trying anyway, and for sharing the experience. It helped me to do the same.

[@brianl161]

I have a laser cut key and this helped me. Two or three hits to the key in the ignition and it would start turning again. Thanks for the suggestion!

[@sainhadam1478]

Holy smokes this is 6 yrs old and it worked for me. Thank you! Now I can sell this thing and let it be someone else's problem.

[@nononaynay]

My husband’s truck was doing this exact thing this morning. I saw your video and told him to hit it with a rubber mallet. IT WORKED! LMAO!!! So thank you. Happy Thanksgiving

[@michaelteagle440]

I've been a locksmith for 20 years have fix many ignitions and see this all the time. So what's actually happening is there's probably a broken wafer. Wafers are what rides on the bumps of the key for the corresponding depth... When you hit the ignition with the hammer you're vibrating that broken or bent wafer into a place where it can turn again. The problem is this doesn't fix it and it can happen again and can get worse and can break your key, or even worse gets stuck somewhere a door in the cold excetera. Another reason could be of a crummy copy so therefore the Wafers are riding on the the bumps correctly in jamming... another issue is removing/ replacing the cylinder is ok except if the car has a transponder you're going to have another key and now the car won't even start because the immobilizer hasn't been married to the new transponder chips. Should call up a local professional locksmith that has a shop address or someone that someone's vouched for. Because unfortunately like any other business there's people that are out there rip you off.

[@youjeltrevo]

Thank you, Michael! Man, I am thankful for the locksmiths! I have been helped out of many jams thanks to you terrific people! I have absolutely no doubt that this can do damage to the ignition. Hopefully nobody thinks this is a definite, permanent fix! It's more like..."I need to get to work in 20 mins, what can I do to get there" and get it fixed later. Thanks for your comment!

[@thomasehrler7510]

Can wafers be fixed or does the whole thing needs replaced?

[@dougngn]

@@thomasehrler7510 sometimes just remove the bent,worn, or broken wafer. But it is just as much work as replacing the cylinder if not more but saves you the cost of parts which was very well worth it. Just did a 2003 Civic. One bent wafer would not let key turn. Removed bad wafer and works fine now. Took two trips to car and about 5 hours to get it all apart and back together. Half the time in the dark with a flashlight. I have done it several times on different cars and would say it is not really a job for the average doityourselfer. Oh, and the hammer trick with key in an out hammer up down sideways backwards all around did not work.

[@chayes954r]

You saved my day...So I came out of the pharmacy jumped into my 1998 Ford Expedition which I've never had any problems with the ignition before and suddenly it was completely stuck and suddenly it would not turn no matter how many times I tried. Unfortunately I didn't have a rubber mallet handy but I did have a regular hammer in my toolbox in the back so I took the key out as you did in the second part of your video and I put a rag over the ignition switch so as not to completely destroy the thing and I didn't hit it very hard just a light tap and Shazam she turned like nothing. You sir and this KZbin video you made saved my day big time! Thank you!!

[@youjeltrevo]

I truly enjoyed this story. Thanks for sharing and so glad there was a good result!

[@maxdaniels5764]

I tried it with the key in and out. No luck. Not hitting hard enough? Figured it was safest to hit it harder without the key in so I didn't break the key off in the lock. No luck. Finally I decided I was less likely to ruin my steering column if I put the key back in and hit it, and darned if it didn't work. Thanks to both gentlemen!

I had not planned to stay, I don’t care much for fireworks, but guess what I got to do -the cleanup, too. I’ve been a member of this ‘society’ for all of four months. I’m alone here not even a board member present, I’m running the show on exhaustion. Finally, 10:30 pm the fireworks over, the final potty run and the parking lot is almost empty when I notice one couple unable to start their truck. I suggested we return to the clubhouse, read a manual, relax see if I can find any info on KZbin. We did and I did! I’m so thankful to you for your posting here!

[@normstaley9799]

although this may appear to work, and it might get you out of a jam for the moment, it fixes nothing, the actual component that releases the cylinder that allows it to turn is a spring loaded bar that retracts under its own pressure, the key only moves the tumblers out of the way and allows it to move, it does not actually move it and taping it with the hammer only vibrates the slider and causes it to temporally start working again, a little WD 40 might lube it for a little while to get you back on the road but it should be taken out cleaned and lubed with a dry lube like graphite

[@youjeltrevo]

Quite true, Norm. My only intention was a short-term fix. Truly, just to get the car out of the driveway and to the auto parts store to buy a new cylinder, which I eventually did.

If the steering wheel is turned too far it will lock. Pull on the steering wheel the direction your wheels are pointing and turn the key at the same time.

[@youjeltrevo]

That's the truth. In the case of this video, it's not the steering wheel that's locked but the ignition switch.

[@schneiderbeans]

I know. It will also lock the ignition if the steering wheel is turned to far to the side.
