Removal and installation the ignition switch (lock) (Fusion)

The ignition switch (lock) is installed on the steering column and secured with two bolts with self-cutting heads, so to replace it, the bolts must be removed with a chisel or drilled out with an electric drill. It is more convenient to replace the ignition switch (lock) on a steering column removed from the car (see "Removal and installation the steering column").

You will need: a drill, an electric drill or a chisel with a hammer, pliers (preferably a welding clamp), a flat-blade screwdriver.



1. Drill out the bolt head from the left…



2. ...and the right side of the switch mount to the steering column and remove the ignition switch (lock) assembly with the contact group.

Note: You can use a chisel and hammer to loosen the switch mounting bolts. Using a hammer, strike the bolts counterclockwise through the chisel at a tangent.

3. Install the ignition switch (lock) in reverse order.
