First disconnect the battery. Drop the steering column cover and loosen the steering column attaching nuts. Before dropping the column remove the shift indicator wire attached by a clip. The ignition switch is located towards the middle of the column facing the dash carrier. Remove both connectors from the switch. Now Unscrew the switch attaching screws and lift the switch of the ignition lock cyl rack rod. Installation is reverse of removal.
Solution 2 is if you need to replace the ignition lock cylinder not the ignition switch. The ignition lock cyl is where you put the key that turns the rack attached to the rod that moves the ignition switch slide at the base of the column. If you need to remove the ignition lock cylinder. You will need some special tools One a steering wheel puller, Two a lock plate remover. First take the screws off from behind the horn pad off and carefully unplug the horn pad wire from the cancelling cam. Now remove the clip and the retaining nut underneath. Next remove the cover plate on top of the lock plate. Then thead the lock plate remover onto the steeing shaft, tightening the nut on top of the depressor and remove the circlip holding the plate on. Now take off the plate and remove the screw holding the turnsignal switch lever and take that off. Next remove the turnsignal cancelling cam and the spring underneath. Also remove the hazard light switch knob. Lastly take the screws that retain the turnsignal switch off and lift out of the way. Pull the key buzzer up and out of the way and the bolt retaining the lock cylinder right the under where the key buzzer was. Installation is reverse of removal.
