How to replace the ignition switch dodge w150

How to replace the ignition switch dodge w150

remove and replace the ignition switch and the key switch, also how to deal with a stuck key

I did not need to replace anything, just needed to re-grease some stuff in the column. the key was starting to stick and get hard to turn. this truck is an 86 model with a 318 and 727 3speed trans. You should now be a master at stealing these trucks.

I know I didn’t show the swapping of the actual switch itself in this video, but if you really need me to show you routing some wires and dropping the little panel under the steering column , then it’s time to put the tools down and go back inside lol.

Althea Mayberry says:

Thanks for the video. I've been beside my self trying to figure out how it goes back together.

Trevor Seals says:

I can’t find anything wrong with this video. I like your home made steering wheel tools, no need to buy expensive ones that do the same thing.

Jim Rhodes says:

Key will not go into my ignition cylinder in my 85 D150.. am asssuming the internal pins /tumblers /springs have worn out.. Gonna HAVE to replace the cylinder, this video is perfect, thank you so much!

Josh Hinton says:

What size bolts did you use to make steering wheel puller?

Christopher bubny says:

Excellent instructional video. Thanks.

Leaky submarine says:

This was just what I needed

Mattie Fattie says:

omg ok so can someone please send me to where to find the "long skinny bolt with the pin on there" it's exactly why my blinker isn't working

david brown says:

Is there a special tool for getting the column back up to put the c clip on? I dont have bolts and angle iron around lol

Redneck Shane says:

Words can't express how grateful I am of this video. Simple instructions that are straight to the point, no filler content, just an overall fantastic video. You just saved me a lot of headache, and worry, with having to dive head first into a job I haven't had to do yet

ElderlyIron says:

Concise. Direct. To the point. Home made tools for getting it done. Very well done, lad! Very well done indeed! I was just wanting to know what tools I'd need for the lock plate, (I have the GM tool) but now i see that I'll probably have to obtain the mounting screws for the ignition switch. I got a basket case with the switch dangling below the column!

What were the symptoms for you to replace this

Turner Bullock says:

What size bolts were on the puller?

Rex O'Steen says:

This video shows so much so quickly- no waste. Extremely useful. I have an automatic on the column 70 cuda. I've removed the first snap ring, but the next cover is not coming off. Next to this cover are the drive-reverse indicators. Any advice?

We lost the keys to our 87. Do we have to have the keys to change out the tumbler?

Great video. Even chrisfix couldn't have done it better.

RBT says:

That was a great video,show and explained alot..hope I don't have to do that tho ha..hopes it's just my relay.on my 1978 ha

Rodney Robbins says:

what size hole did you have to drill in the angle iron to pull the steering shaft upward ? Also what size bolts thread into steering column to do the lifting ?

Nathan Nez says:

So would this help my 85 d150… I turn the key and no power it turns on but won't start my truck… I replaced the starter and starter relay so next im thinking ignition switch is the problem so thank you for this video…

Ethan Johnson says:

Will this work for a 1986 power ram w250? It seems like it would only problem is the half the key is broke off in the tumbler

jdpinbaytown says:

Wow, The one in my 1st Car "1970 Chrysler Newport" was just like this!, My guess all Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth's with non tilt column were like this 1970 till late 80s

Sjfodor says:

Tight video indeed. Nice editing. Here is what you are going to, here is what it looks like when done, here is the next step. I dont need to see someone unscrewing a nut or screw.
Super helpful, made my own jig last night to pull the wheel on my ‘78 power wagon D100 and replaced the blinker assembly. Thanks.

Jamie Malinowski says:

Good day dude…I am wondering if you have dealt with the ignition switch on a tilt wheel column and linkage etc…?

Roberto Cruz says:
