(804) 300-3400Ignition Switch vs. Ignition Cylinder
Many people confuse the ignition cylinder (the mechanical part you insert the key into) with the ignition switch (the electrical component behind it). They can fail independently. If your key turns but the car doesn't respond electrically, the switch is likely the culprit — not the cylinder.
We diagnose both on-site and repair whichever component has failed — or both, if needed.
