How to Unstick a Suzuki Ignis Key Suzuki's quirky, inexpensive city car is getting a midlife update. It's not a supercar, but it can eat the tarmac in rural and urban areas quickly, and its unique turning circle makes town centre driving a breeze.

First, check if the ignition switch is in the “on” position. If it is, then try to turn the key in the direction you were turning it before the wheel was locked. It's a bit difficult, but it is enough to unlock the wheels. If the wheel doesn't unlock If it doesn't, you can spray a tiny amount of canned air into the ignition cylinder to lubricate it. Make sure you wear eye protection prior to doing this so you do not get any canned air in your eyes! suzuki swift key can also use liquid graphite to lubricate your cylinder. If none of these strategies work, you'll need to replace the ignition lock assembly. Luckily, this is an easy part to find at any auto parts store. Make sure to purchase an identical replacement and compare it to your original before attempting to install it. Uncover the ignition to view the entire assembly. Worn The steering lock may bind the ignition switch, causing the key to get stuck. This safety feature is designed to keep your Ignis from moving while the engine is running. If this happens, you can unbind the steering wheel by manipulating it. Over time, your Ignis key can start to wear out and become more difficult to turn. It might not occur as often as a defective switch, but it can happen. If this is the case, then you need to replace your key. You should also see if there is anything obstructing your Ignis key from getting into the ignition cylinder. Sometimes, there could be debris or dirt that can be tucked away inside, preventing the key from turning exactly as it is supposed to. In the end, you can try a little grease to see if it aids. You can find a variety of lubricants in your garage or local auto parts store. A silicon “glow-in-the-dark” key cover is a different option. These covers absorb light and release it when conditions are dark or murky. They will also help protect your key or fob from wear and wear and tear. They are available for most Suzuki models, and are available via the internet or from a local Suzuki dealership. Bent A key can bend over time. The teeth of the keys may not engage with lock cylinders in the same way. This can prevent the key from turning. If this is the case the key will have to be replaced. It is a good plan to duplicate your spare key and keep it in a secure area. The cylinder that controls the ignition can wear out. The internal lock pins can become stuck or stuck together, preventing the key from going all the way into or out of the ignition cylinder. This can be fixed by replacing the cylinder but it is best to replace the cylinder before the key becomes stuck in the ignition. If your Ignis key is stuck despite trying the easier things to fix it's time to try lubricating your cylinder. Graphite powder or liquid graphite could help the lock pins move more freely and unbind your key. This can be found in a majority of auto parts shops. When applying the lubricant, make sure your Ignis is in park and do not attempt to manhandle it to unbind it. This could cause more serious problems. Broken If you have tried all the easy methods to make a key unstick but it doesn't move, the last resort is to apply fluid to get it moving. You can buy some of this from your local auto parts store and apply it to the inside of the cylinder for the ignition lock using a cotton ball, or a rag. Move the key back and forth gently to spread the lubricant around and try again. Try to massage it forward, but be cautious not to push too hard because you could break it in the cylinder. The key's internal circuitry can be unable to function due to aging and usage. This isn't nearly as common and typically means that you'll want to have the key duplicated for the new one. The case of your Suzuki keyfob could also get damaged or worn. This is most likely when you're using an imitation key fob, which has a plastic or rubber shell. Depending on the situation, The Key Crew can sometimes transfer the internal circuitry of your old key fob into an appropriate shell case which means you don't have to purchase a new key fob.
