Key snapped in ignition and now cant get it out!!!!


i have tried using safety pins but no luck.
was wondering if l could get inside the ignition?

or best to get a replacement barrell?

many thanks

Here is an easy fix that has saved me on more than one occasion take the other half of the broken key apply a small amount of super glue GEL (you do not want it running onto the internal parts of the ign.) and press the key against the broken piece hold it as still as you can for at least one full minute longer if you can stand it then gently pull out. If you can not get it out your going to have to replace the ignition drum. Good luck.

Well it depends on the make model of vehicle but if the key is materials its made up from contain metals then a magnet may cause the key to be pulled out.A very thin nail mite help to get it out too or sewing needles etc.
The thing about getting a key out is it can take a heck of a lot of patience & become extremely frustrating but l am sure if u keep working on it u will get it out eventually.


Hope that helps & best of luck.By the way l might be calling the dealerships customer service rep & asking if they've any ideas or suggestions but mainly to find out if the key needs to be in the ignition to remove the ignitions clynder bec maybe u might get the broken piece out better if the ignition clynder could be more accessable at hand.
