If you have any issues with the ignition lock cylinder of a Ford Ranger, this tutorial will show you how to proceed. First, disconnect the negative battery terminal.

To remove the old lock cylinder, a star screwdriver is sufficient. Position the key in the "RUN" (third click) position.

Insert the screwdriver through the hole located under the lock and pry outward to extract the cylinder. Take the new cylinder and insert it into the empty socket until it clicks into place.

Reconnect the negative battery terminal and test the ignition!

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
