How do you remove the key solonoid?
I need to know how to remove the key ignition solonoid (the part the key goes into) in a 96-00 civic. My uncle is a lock smith and he is going to rekey it for me.
The reason i want to re key it is, the car was broken into before and the ignition was tore up, so now i have 1 key for the doors/trunk, and 1 key for the ignition. I just want 1 key for everything.
If you think this may cause a security issue with the answer being posted, please PM it to me or email me BClaps@twcny.rr.com

The part the key goes in isn't the solenoid. I think you got to pull the wheel and take all that stuff off.

You have to remove the plastic interior pieces,drop the steering wheel 2 bolts hold it up,when you drop the wheel you will see a strap around the collum w/ 2 bolts.Cut or drill the bolts holding the strap.I had to cut the strap w/cutt-off disc to remove it.

Its actually a peice of cake.. Im not sure if you're able to do it with the ignition still on the column.. I always do it when its off.. But with the original lock thats in the ignition now you turn the key to on position theres a little button on the ignition somewhere you need to get a small scredriver or a nail or something and push that little button in now the lock should just slide right out.. Some times theres a star screw thats on the ignition too, if thats there that also needs to be removed.. I'll try and shoot some pics to give a better explanation
