They got my 2016 Kia Soul a few days ago. Right now, it's in the police impound lot being dusted for fingerprints. Thank you for taking the time to make this video It was indeed very useful and informative!
I finally got it back riddled with bullet holes. I ordered a used ignition switch from eBay and the guy I ordered it from sent me the entire steering column. I took the ignition switch out and i am now in process of rekeying it to fit my origional FOB@@EeveelutionStorm
I am taking my Soul to the dealer today to have the "Lock Cylinder Protector" installed. It's anyone's guess as to how effective it will be. Anyone out there already had this done?
My 2015 was hit last week both passenger side windows busted out & ignition pulled out. My question is all I have is a single key no fob or folding key so all I need to purchase from Kia is the ignition cylinder set? Then worry about the housing later, correct? I’m doing this on my own to save money and having a hard time finding any info but ran across this and it’s big big help! Thank you
Thank you for this tutorial, between the theif, the Kia dealer, (stealership) and the lizard non-insurance company, it was going to be a huge out of pocket expense.
They got my Kia soul Friday 1/12/2024 and I was lost thinking I’m out of a car. But mine looks way worse the wiper switch is also off. But this just gave me a bit of hope
Criminals are Criminals, no matter how young they are. Car being stolen really brought a lot of pain to me and I lost my sense of safety in a relatively safe neighborhood. Criminals travel and nowhere is safe
mine was stolen a couple of days ago. The police recovered it in 24 hours and they have whoever did it. I will go to court when sentenced. what would be good to say? advice please
Whats the part number / name for the ignition light ring thingy ? 3:27 On my car I Noticed the bulb(s) must have went out so ignition switch is dark at night. Id appreciate it so much. Been scouring the net just for this part for my 2017 kia soul plus. I Dont need the cylinder.
Does the ignition body need to be replaced or is it just the switch in this situation? My sonata looks exactly like this and the dealership quoted a new ignition body and switch and I think they’re trying to upsell what I really need fixed
The Hyundai boys broke into my car last night as well :( switch was pryed open. I was able to put it back on and get car to turn ON but I don’t get it to start. No crank either… any help on what it might be? Thank you
First turn off the alarm by hitting the unlock button on the remote or turn the key into the door lock twice If that doesn’t fix it remove the ignition and turn it by a Parlier of pliers if that doesn’t work check your battery or starter
How do you take that part out someone broke into my car and messed it up how do I remove it? I’m trying to remove it but it won’t come off the key hole is all messed up
Kia boys and two girls just got me, literally caught them and they scattered like roaches in the light, crazy part is they are teenagers in the neighborhood smh.
Hi, the same thing happen to me and now I`m trying to find the ignition for a kia rio 2010 5 doors, can you recommande me a site that I can find that? Thank you. Very well explain how to change and ignition
They got me yesterday(Hyundai Sonata) I was able to put the ignition back in place all wires are still intact. When putting it back in everything works perfect I just need to put the console back together
Ic you can get it to turn then it need to be on ACC position and use a pick to push the release button on the bottom. If you can’t turn it just brake it until it comes out without damaging the housing . Or just replace the whole thing by taking the top 2 bolts off
Motherfuckers got my car today. I really appreciate it, man. I'm in LA, but it seems to be happening everywhere for KIA owners. What a pain in the ass.
In a lot of cases the ignition switch stays on after damage causing the battery to drain. And yes a lot of times those kids end up braking the wiper control lever . Buy the part and replace it your self ( easy ) some will slide out others held by few screws
I clicked that ignition piece back on where they had removed it and inserted a USB, but now my key won't go all the way in. What do I do to fix this? In lamens terms because I am clueless.
Right mine got hit yesterday and just damaged my bumper and my ignition colum was broken but the ignition is till hanging not much damage can I use the same or do I have to buy a new one ?
@@ivanvega2821 no . Plus you can’t use it if it doesn’t have a key . But you can always take the vin and go to a local locksmith shop they will cut you a key by vin as long as it’s a junkyard car
3 Spanish kids that broke into my sisters 2017 Kia Soul. We found them with the LoJack app. We followed them to another house that they tried to stash it at. Police would not knock on the home of the theives. Absolutely no help😅. The broken rear window and ignition switch has been all out-of-pocket a month later and we had to move the vehicle to a different spot to keep it from being potentially stolen again. 😢
These sons of bitches did the same thing to my car 3 days ago and some of those small parts disappeared, I went to the mechanic yesterday and he said that only the ignition lock cylinder part is 350 dollars, plus there is a labor fee and if I can't find those small parts, it will have to be re-software and this will increase the price. He said it and I don't know what to do now 😢
I'm missing that whole part you installed. I couldn't find that part for a 2017 sante fe sport v4 model .. All i find is the whole ignition assembley which is to much.
after got my car recovered and fixed. i have to use the old fob to unlock the car, then start the car with a separate key blade. i have to carry both old and new key to get the car work. i had to upgrade to a push start system.
Check if the plastic housing is broken, if so it won’t start in place , and will need a replacement. Unless you can pick up the broken parts off the floor and glue it together
@@PhilyCarsAndKeysmy housing part is kind of broken Is it away around it cause I already bought the ignition part but I don’t think it’s goin to stay in the housing
@@jasminemickens3144 either you replace it or I have seen some people take the broken housing parts and glueing it back together. And once you install the ignition into the housing zip-ties it Remember it’s not a moving part plus the plastic cover helps holding it in place But I recommend replacing the housing I have a video on that on my channel
They hit me too. What is the name of the part you put that into? The clips on that piece is snapped off but idk what the part is called to look up pricing to fix it.
These degenerates got me last night! No one saw anything. Just bought 3 ring cameras. I want them on video next time so I can put em on blast on the internet.

They got my 2009 kia borrego. Im pissed because most of the parts are disconnected. I waited 3 months to get it out of the shop and 8000 in rentals cars. It cost more than the car. They are the worst people...
They broke the window on my 06 Chevy and tried to steal it but when I tried to follow this video to replace the key cylinder none of the steps that you say to follow don't work. Nothing on your video shows how to put a broken window back together.
This video is for a Kia not a Chevy . And it’s for ignition cylinder not a window . Search up RUclips for your car and model and I’m sure there is a video for you
Dealership , however you can find it in junkyards or on eBay . I have few in stock if you like to buy one , I can even match it to your existing key before shipping
@@CarlosRivera-eo5yh Employ the same method the theives did and use a strong screwdriver inside what is left of the ignition lock cylinder and twist hard. There is nothing left to damage at this point. After that, just push in the release button and pull the ignition lock housing out of the column.

Cool to get reviews but now you're just going to work yourself out of work as a locksmith. . Think about this, you're showing everyone how to do you're newfound profession so once everyone stops calling what new profession are you going to go do then? Real locksmiths don't go around telling everyone how to do their job let alone showing them the security workings. Must be a recently new locksmith as if you rely on people doing you're job for you then you'll be out of work soon. Not trying to be rude but your approach to it based on wanting views isn't a fair teadeoff. RUclips is the one making the money off you and guarantee unless ur producing videos weekly ur not getting rich off RUclips but also doing a detrimental service to most other legitimate locksmiths.
Him showing people isn't hurting his business or anybody else's for that matter, and definitely doesn't make someone any less of a professional by helping people. Some people still aren't going to do it themselves just because they watch a "how to" video. Plus it's way too many people in the world that still would rather pay someone. Give op his repsect and leave it that.
Turn off the ringer😂 Why is the ignition so easily destroyed on the kia/Hyundai making them kia punks ( they're actually pre teens🤯 yikes) want to steal them??
