Hey I just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to post this. I have a
2000 Tundra and everything was pretty much the same, took about 45 mins to
complete thanks to you and your video.
Your video was a big help…My pick up was broken into and they did a
number on the ignition. But by viewing your video I was able to remove the
ignition and get it started. Thank you.
So the one you installed didn’t have problem starting the vehicle with the
keys having no chips? I was going to order new ignition cylinder w/ keys
for my ’03 Sequoia and was worried that I will have problem starting the
vehicle due to the chips/security code.
@George or if you get a new lock cylinder with keys that come with
transponder chips, then yes you have to have those keys programmed. Any key
maker that is a small business usually can program them.
@George The new ignition lock cylinder being installed has its own keys cut
for it so the keys in particular do not have chips in them. If you have a
4Runner and it has transponders inside it’s keys then you have to get new
keys made for the new lock cylinder going in and have them programmed from
your old set of keys.

Is there a way to get it out without turning the key to accessory? I can’t
turn the key at all.

@Valerie it is Toyota 4Runner. Not a ford.
Thank you! Watched your vid a couple times… following your instructions,
I went out and changed my ignition switch and it was super easy. Thank you.
The video is labeled toyota forerunner, but you state its a 98
ford…..which is it??
@bleur you’re welcome! Glad the video could help!

Did you have to program the new transponder keys to work with the old
master key’s code?
@Mike Schinkel You’re welcome sir. I noticed no one had ever posted the
whole process of changing it.
THANK YOU for this! You are awesome for having made the effort to post this.
