The electrical switch behind the cylinder sends power to the starter and systems. If it fails your car may stall or not crank. We replace the switch and test every position accessory on and start.
A faulty steering lock can keep the key from turning. An interlock fault can trap the shifter in park and lock the key. We repair both so the key turns smoothly and the shifter releases.

We verify ownership before cutting keys or programming ignitions. Your security matters.
Your car should not look like it was in a movie chase scene after ignition work. Our techs protect trim and panels use proper tools and avoid drilling unless there is no other option. If drilling is required because the cylinder is completely locked up or damaged we explain why and show you the old parts.
We also disconnect the battery when needed keep airbags safe and verify that all electronics are back online after programming.
Houston has plenty of garages and gated lots. We work in most of them. If your building has access rules please let security or management know we are on the way. We arrive in clearly marked vehicles and we keep noise and disruption to a minimum.
Tight garages with low ceilings are fine. Our vans fit in most structures. If access is limited we bring hand tools and parts up to your level.
