You are actually lucky yours lasted until now. You came to the right place for an experienced automotive locksmith. We have replaced hundreds of Ford Focus ignitions.

Toyota Ignition Repair & Toyota Ignition Replacement

Do you have a Toyota with an ignition issue? This day was bound to come for you, the day your Toyota ignition would leave you stranded or frustrated. We understand and even share your love and passion for Toyota cars. However, Toyota ignitions are known to give troubles.

One of the main issues we see with Toyota ignitions is the faulty design of the Toyota ignition cylinder. Because most Toyotas do not have dust covers on their ignitions dirt and dust accumulate inside the cylinder and get between the key springs and wafers. The second probable cause for a stuck Toyota ignition is a bad key copy or worn out key. A worn key can gradually damage the wafers and housing of the cylinder until it just gets stuck. The third and most likely cause for ignition lock-out on a Toyota is a failure of the split wafer system. Toyota added a security feature to their locks that is basically a wafer (2 in a cylinder at positions 4 and 7) that is split in half and sits on the same cut positions in a given key. In many of the repairs we do we find this is the cause of ignition failure. One of the split wafers overlaps another one and prevents the key from turning.
