Suzuki's fanciful, inexpensive city car receives a midlife refresh. It's not a hot hatch, but it can handle the tarmac in rural and urban areas well. And its tight turning circle makes driving around town a breeze.
The new model comes equipped with smart driver assistance and safety technologies that includes lane departure warning and sleepiness detection alarms that are excellent features for long drives.
Steering Lock
The steering lock is a security measure that protects your Ignis from being stolen when it's in gear. It's an important safety measure, but it can be frustrating when you need to get somewhere, but you're unable to unlock the wheel. There are fortunately, a few easy steps you can take to fix the problem.
First, make sure the ignition switch is set to "on". If that's the case, then try turning the key in the same direction as you did prior to the time that the wheel became locked. This could be difficult but it's typically enough to unlock the wheel.
If the wheel does not unlock after spraying canned air in the ignition cylinder, you may lubricate the cylinder. Wear eye protection to prevent getting cannisters of air in your face. You can also use liquid graphite to lubricate your cylinder.
If none of these options work, you'll need replace the ignition lock assembly. It's an easy part to find at any auto parts store. Make sure to purchase the exact replacement, and compare it to the original. Take off the cover from the ignition to reveal the assembly.
Worn
The steering lock can be a bind to the ignition switch and cause the key to be stuck. This is a security feature that is designed to stop your Ignis from moving away while the engine is running. If this happens, turning the steering wheel will release it.
Over time, your Ignis key can wear out and become more difficult to turn. It may not occur as often as a bad switch, but it can happen. If this is the case, it is recommended to replace your key.
Check to see if anything is blocking your Ignis ignition key from gaining access to the cylinder. There could be dirt or debris which can become stuck inside the ignition cylinder, preventing it from turning.
You can also test some lubricant and see if it helps. You can find a wide range 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 murky or darker. They will also help to protect your fob or key from wear and tear. They are available for a majority of suzuki key fob replacement models and are available through the internet or from a nearby suzuki swift remote key replacement dealership.
Bent
Over time and through repeated use a key can get bent. This could cause the teeth of the key to not engage with the lock cylinder in the same manner and stop the key from turning the ignition. If this is the case the key will have to be replaced. If you have a spare, it is an ideal idea to get it duplicated and put it in a safe place.
The cylinder that controls the ignition can wear out. The lock pins within the cylinder can become stuck or stuck together, which can prevent the key from moving through or out of the ignition cylinder. The replacement of the cylinder may solve this issue, but it's recommended to do it before your key gets stuck in the ignition, to avoid further damage.
If your Ignis key stuck despite trying simpler fixes it could be time to consider lubricating the cylinder. Graphite powder or liquid graphite could assist in allowing the lock pins to move more freely and free your key. This can be found at the majority of auto parts stores. Be sure to put your Ignis in park before applying the lubricant. Do not try to manhandle the Ignis to release it from its binding. This could lead to more serious problems.
Broken
If you've tried everything else to remove a key but it's still stuck, your last resort is to try some fluid. You can purchase the lubricant from your local auto parts shop and apply it using either a cotton swab, or an abrasive to the inside of the lock cylinder. 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 as you may break it in the cylinder.
The circuitry inside the key may also be unresponsive due to wear and tear. This isn't nearly as common and usually means you'll have to have the key duplicated for a new one.
The case of your suzuki swift replacement key keyfob could also get damaged or worn. This is more common when you are using a cheap replica keyfob with a plastic or rubber shell. Depending on the situation, The Key Crew can sometimes transfer the internal circuitry of your old key fob into the shell of a new case, avoiding the need to purchase a completely new key fob.
