There are times when you may encounter a situation where you lose power and are unable to remove the key from the car’s ignition. If your vehicle lacks a little door under the ignition, you can follow these steps to resolve the issue.
First, locate the small cover near the ignition. Use a small screwdriver or a coin to carefully remove this cover. Keep in mind that this cover is a reinstallable rubber piece, so don’t misplace it.
Next, the piece of the trim just below the ignition needs to be pulled down to access a button located at the back. You can use a flashlight to help locate this button if needed. By reaching underneath and pressing this button, you will be able to remove the key from the ignition.
Although the video demonstrates a significant level of disassembly, it’s important to note that this may not be necessary for your own vehicle. Simply pull down the trim enough to access the button. Be cautious during this process to avoid causing damage to your car.
If you’re having trouble locating the button, it’s a small silver button located at the back of the ignition. Pressing this button will allow you to release the key.
We hope these instructions help you resolve the issue of being unable to remove the key from your car’s ignition. Remember to handle your vehicle with care and avoid unnecessary disassembly.
