Buyer's checklist

What to check before buying a used ignition switch

  • Determine if the unit includes the mechanical lock cylinder with matching keys, or if it is purely the electrical ignition switch contact block.
  • Match key transponder chip frequency (Passlock, PATS, or RFID) and verify if anti-theft relearn or key programming tools will be required.
  • Inspect wire harness pigtail connectors for burnt plastic or loose female spade terminals caused by ignition circuit overload.
  • Verify key cylinder positions (Accessory, Off, Run, Start) turn smoothly without sticking, binding, or requiring key jiggling.
