Hey guys,

I'm posting this on behalf of one of my friends who owns a 2003 DX civic. He went to start his car this morning and when he puts in the key the lock cylinder wouldn't budge (and thats after playing with the steering wheel). He tried his 2 other spares and nothing the ignition won't move. I'm guessing this is a worn out key-lock cylinder. How hard is it to remove and replace with a junker one? or is it possible to open it up and service whatever might be worn out?

Thanks

 

The ignition has and interlock device coded to the key. New cylinder= new key= having Honda sync the key to the ECM/PCM.
