Hey guys, having a bit of an issue.
I tried starting my car up this morning to head to work, but couldn't get it to crank. The ignition cylinder seems to not want to go past the ON position; where the dash, radio etc. is on. It won't go that extra step to start cranking. It worked fine when I left work last night.
I have have both the original key (worn down) and a copy that is in good condition. They both open the doors and trunk without issue. From what I've read the cylinder is probably worn down, but a replacement can be had via VIN match. Is this correct? Or is that only an option for the key itself? I'm going to try the pin hole method to try and remove it and start the car using a workaround while I figure this out.
What do you guys think; am I on the right track here?
