"Why is that possible" The reason behind this is the only thing the key needs to do on older vehicles, is just unlock the ignition pin to turn it, which is why with old cars that have a broken ignition pin, you can twist the ignition and start the car with a screwdriver or even just your hands if the ignition has those little nubs that come off to help turn it.
Right, the ignition switch is in fact, just a switch. It's a switch on a locked cylinder though, extremely similar to a padlock. The key does not complete the circuit, it's not the switch. It's just what allows the switch to move. As soon as that cylinder is turned the key has completed it's entire purpose, it's no longer necessary (hot-wiring a car just bypasses the locked switch and connects the wires the switch would connect, with an exposed switch you can hotwire a car with a paper clip). Some cylinders are key retaining cylinders, thus when turned the key cannot be removed. On old vehicles they didn't care about that so you can pull the key out once that cylinder has turned (and the internal pins are aligned with the shear line). You can turn the ignition off without the key because once those pins are aligned with the shear line the cylinder turns, so long as it isn't turned all the way back into the locked position (again, just like a padlock). My truck is a 1966 C10 and I can start it up, take the key, lock the door from the outside with the key, and walk away from a running car you can't get into
@@davidriley9194 They did have them, but it was just a small piece that prevented the key from cranking all the way. The key's only purpose once you were in the vehicle was to turn the piece away so the ignition could crank all the way. As these cars were used, many of these systems eventually stopped working, with the piece getting lodged into where the key should be moving it. As a result, many old cars now can be started without a key. This is one of many reasons why manufacturers started using push to start ignitions, and key ignitions are virtually gone from the market (in the US, anyway).
My uncle used to take the key out while he was driving his old Lincoln to scratch his ear. lol Blew me away. It was definitely possible back in the 90's.
@@maskedredstonerproz Must have something to do with that being an european car and these all being american. Also I've found some people have immobilizers and other anti theft systems in their golf 2, also just because it's old doesn't mean thee ignition pin is broken
Why NOT to take out the key while driving? Because your steering wheel can lock and you can't steer anymore. It's also possible to lose the break booster so you may need to press the break pedal much harder.
this is proof why you should try and see if your vehicle can start with out the key because you never know if it's possible and if it is you might want to get that issue fixed if you can
@@fergotti that's not reverse my dude. You slam it into the race gear and you gotta make sure it stays in there because it's going to fight its way out
Yeah, totally possible. Once lock pins are worn or broken, key isn't needed in the older trucks. Screwdriver will do the job. Security transponders built into the next gen key bodies have made it so the key now has to at least be close to the ignition block if not needed to turn it.
@@rockdem0n I second that since I recently got into a Chevy Impala from Y2K that had over 200,000 miles and you could take the key out at anytime you wanted it to
I have a 98 Ford Fiesta and I easily unlock his doors with a slotted screwdriver. Also I can unlocks his doors with the keys of other ford Fiesta or Ford Ka.
I remember on my 02 Civic the key fell off when I was driving (about 10mph) turning left, needless to say the steering wheel locked and I went bumper first into a brick barrier
I'm a locksmith in Portland, Oregon and i have costumers coming in with same issues on the newer trucks or cars like for example a 2006 Toyota pickup The first reason is that your key can be worn out you might need a new one Second is your ignition is worn out The third is that someone before you bought the truck removed all the pins inside the ignition and any key can turn it now. I've seen that stuff happen before. so if you replace the ignition on it you will not be able to pull out the key from it while driving I guarantee you that. Thank you hope this helped.
You Failed. Keyless Entry means not having to use a "Key" too enter the vehicle. Clearly Mike shows he needs a KEY to Enter/Unlock the door then he can start it without a key.

Yes there is a safety feature for shutting the engine off with the key at anytime. The reason for it is simple, if the accelerator sticks you can cut power to protect the engine.
Whenever you’re attempting to turn off the engine while the car is still moving, it’s very important to be aware of the different key positions for “OFF” vs. “LOCK”. Don’t turn it all the way to lock, just to off.
@@maxine_q I know that. What I'm saying is that if you have a need/desire to turn the engine off while moving, you should only turn the key to "OFF". There's no reason to pull it out.
You must be able to turn the engine off at anytime it's a safety kill switch. As for removal of the key and the engine still running, it's just wearing down from lots of use. Had a truck that you had to put the key in and turn it on then press a start button and you could then remove the key and leave it running lock it up and walk away but to shut down the engine you had to put the key back in trunk it off then pull a knob that pulled a cable that would shut down the engine. If you tried to pull the knob without the key then it wouldn't budge no matter how hard you pulled on it.
@@kekun3740 Not in case of manual transmission, so it is dangerous to do it on manual transmission cars that require key. Steering lock usually turn on when you turn the ignition off and pull the key out. If you just turn ignition off and leave key in, then you can still steer, but of course no power steering and other things that need running engine.
It makes sense for this to work on an old car because the key is only to allow the ignition to move, start the car and allow power to flow throughout the car so if you pull out the key, the ignition switch will stay in its position but there is just no key so the ignition switch won't be moving anywhere. This means that your car won't be able to be turned off, it'll just run until it runs out of gas unless you get the key back. More modern cars like 2012 etc. don't allow the key to be pulled out while the ignition switch is in any position except the "off" position.
It doesn't have a chip in the key, in the newer cars (96 and newer) there's an ignition chip in the key, if you make a spare without the chip, it'll go in, turn, but won't turn over
The short answer is you lose power brakes and power steering and have to strong arm the car. Might need 2 feet on the brakes if the pedal is wide enough. I've tested this out because it's a good scenario to practice in the event of an emergency if your car becomes disabled. If it's a manual, you can still downshift to help reduce speed faster than braking alone. Doing these together will stop you faster without resorting to a hand brake. If it's an automatic, put it in neutral and attempt start the car again while in motion. If it starts, put it in drive and move along. Drivers Ed teaches you these things which become permanently embedded in your brain. Also this guys Ford truck has probably had the ignition tumbler tampered with to easily remove the key like that.
The college I went to back in late 90's and early 2000's has a Ford Escort Station Wagon that had no key. You could start and stop the car the same way you did on the video. - Thank you for bring me back. Also, while at school, I had the same Ford Range but it was a '94 , single cab with a short bed. No A/C, No Power Steering, Manual Trans, Bench Seating, & I had to put a radio in. I also could take the key out while the truck was running. I never tried to start the truck without a key. Now I wish I did. - I hit a stone wall with that thing and it still ran for 3 - 4 more years.
I had a '98 B2500 (basically a Mazda Ranger/same truck) that was like this. Manual 2wd. I drove it for a couple years before I realized it... one day while driving I inadvertently slid the key out into my hand. The only thing that prevented it from starting without is if the steering wheel had locked. That key... was so worn out, it was like mashed potatoes. No grooves or form of any kind left anywhere. And that truck sounded about like your Everclear drive when I finally drove it into the scrap yard. 🤘🏻😆🤘🏻
In a manual car if you turn the engine off you can still have it running if the gear is engaged (of course you wouldn't have acceleration, just engine braking). If you put in neutral the engine stops, but you can "restart" is by engaging the gear and releasing the clutch. If you turn the ignition on then you have power again. With the automatic transmission when the ignition is off the solenoids lose power and the transmission is in neutral. Even if you turn the ignition back on the engine can't restart by itself because the automatic transmission requires oil pressure to engage, which is provided by a pump driven by the engine
Apparently ford knew someone would leave their keys somewhere and they decided “fuck it, let’s just make it a keyless start vehicle” before keyless starts we’re a thing. 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks! You have literally answered my questions I had for years. There's this experiment and the other ones with the putting the transmission into gear while driving. I'm glad I don't have to do them myself lol, sub'd
Years ago, some GM cars had "lock", "off" and "on" positions so that you could remove the key and leave the ignition unlocked if you wished. In that same era GM had few variations in their keys, so my Pontiac, my neighbor's Buick and my sister's Chevy had identical keys. Apparently, the Honor System still worked back then.
I had a good friend that did this all the time with an old pickup, one day he forgot about him leaving the key at a friends house and only remembered once he got home and shut off the engine, he learned his lesson after that
Unless you're British lol, like me where we actually learn to drive a manual car and most British people have driven manual cars for most of their life
my 98 dodge ram (manual) was able to have the key removed while driving but once you turned it off you couldn't get it to turn back on without it. This, this is a whole new level
The keys on older pickups are primarily designed just to push the pins in the right position so the key barrel can turn. We have a 91 Jeep Wrangler Renegade and removing the key from the ignition while driving doesn't do anything. The ignition can turn between accessory and start without a key. If you turn an older style barrel to lock without the key, it will become stuck in lock until you use the key again. Practically scarred the shit out of some of my passengers removing the key while going down the road.
Depends on the car. Modern manuals literally won't let you it physically prevents a shift from gear into reverse while you're moving, some older cars I think it'd actually go into neutral, and others it'd destroy your transmission.
I don't know about in brand new cars, but I know that the 2003 Honda Accord that I drive, you can cut off the engine & still keep coasting unless you turn the key to fully off so you can take it out. If you turn the key to just radio, it'll keep going, but you'll have no lights or spedometer, but if you turn it back to "on," you can keep coasting. I did this going down a multi-mile grade, but I wouldn't recommend it because you lose power braking very quickly & then you'll have a hard time stopping.
ive known this since i was super young. me mum used to have a van thats key didnt lock in when she drove it so shed pull it out just to show us for fun and it always blew our minds
seen a '98 ranger do that. Always thought it was so that you could turn the passenger airbag on/off while the engine is running as that was for some reason an actual switch that used the key (probably only as a lever though). at least on that truck if the ignition was in the "lock" position then it required the key to turn, but once out of lock it could turn to on, off, start, or even back to the locked position, accessory is on the other side of lock so if left in that position it would have to turn past lock to do anything else essentially still being "secure". that accessory position makes me think it was intentional, but maybe it's just from being a worn out lock
the mechanism is worn. Old Holdens (Australian GM's) used to have that happen when they were well used. Btw be careful turning the ignition off while driving - steering lock will engage!
The only anti-theft feature is the manual trans

@@GUMBYVLOG I wanted this bid to be about one with a chipped key but maybe all of his are to valuable to do that
You don’t even need the screwdriver
Love the positive attitude and down to earth personality brotha
The short answer is you lose power brakes and power steering and have to strong arm the car. Might need 2 feet on the brakes if the pedal is wide enough. I've tested this out because it's a good scenario to practice in the event of an emergency if your car becomes disabled.
If it's a manual, you can still downshift to help reduce speed faster than braking alone. Doing these together will stop you faster without resorting to a hand brake. If it's an automatic, put it in neutral and attempt start the car again while in motion. If it starts, put it in drive and move along. Drivers Ed teaches you these things which become permanently embedded in your brain. Also this guys Ford truck has probably had the ignition tumbler tampered with to easily remove the key like that.
I laughed so hard when he turned the truck on without a key😂
A lot of fords from back in the day ignitions were like that
That Fusion video was my introduction to you lol
Same
The college I went to back in late 90's and early 2000's has a Ford Escort Station Wagon that had no key. You could start and stop the car the same way you did on the video. - Thank you for bring me back.
Also, while at school, I had the same Ford Range but it was a '94 , single cab with a short bed. No A/C, No Power Steering, Manual Trans, Bench Seating, & I had to put a radio in. I also could take the key out while the truck was running. I never tried to start the truck without a key. Now I wish I did. - I hit a stone wall with that thing and it still ran for 3 - 4 more years.
I had a '98 B2500 (basically a Mazda Ranger/same truck) that was like this. Manual 2wd. I drove it for a couple years before I realized it... one day while driving I inadvertently slid the key out into my hand. The only thing that prevented it from starting without is if the steering wheel had locked. That key... was so worn out, it was like mashed potatoes. No grooves or form of any kind left anywhere. And that truck sounded about like your Everclear drive when I finally drove it into the scrap yard. 🤘🏻😆🤘🏻
It's the tumbler in the lock of the stearing whell lock
"Why is that possible? That's so weird!" 🤣🤣

"Why is that possible...?" 😟😟😟
Your the king of these type of vids awesome🔥🔥💯👍
He’s out of gas no creativity left he’s got a few breaths left before the nail goes in the coffin
In a manual car if you turn the engine off you can still have it running if the gear is engaged (of course you wouldn't have acceleration, just engine braking). If you put in neutral the engine stops, but you can "restart" is by engaging the gear and releasing the clutch. If you turn the ignition on then you have power again.
With the automatic transmission when the ignition is off the solenoids lose power and the transmission is in neutral. Even if you turn the ignition back on the engine can't restart by itself because the automatic transmission requires oil pressure to engage, which is provided by a pump driven by the engine
Apparently ford knew someone would leave their keys somewhere and they decided “fuck it, let’s just make it a keyless start vehicle” before keyless starts we’re a thing. 🤣🤣🤣
Me wit an old Pontiac:
I can take the keys out while it's on
how lil uzi vert once said “you gone die”
Could it be possibly that it got broken into a long time ago?
I wasn’t surprised until he started it without a key. Makes total sense why it would keep running or even turn off, but unsure why it would turn onn
Just subbed because you are answering all of my car questions since childhood haha! Stay safe brotha
So basically, climb through the back window and of you go!
Well GOT DAMN
Thanks! You have literally answered my questions I had for years. There's this experiment and the other ones with the putting the transmission into gear while driving. I'm glad I don't have to do them myself lol, sub'd
My dad had to fully turn off his car to reset the air suspension system while driving.
Years ago, some GM cars had "lock", "off" and "on" positions so that you could remove the key and leave the ignition unlocked if you wished. In that same era GM had few variations in their keys, so my Pontiac, my neighbor's Buick and my sister's Chevy had identical keys. Apparently, the Honor System still worked back then.
Like my dad always said locks just keep honest people honest
I had a good friend that did this all the time with an old pickup, one day he forgot about him leaving the key at a friends house and only remembered once he got home and shut off the engine, he learned his lesson after that
Well most people nowadays unlike back then don’t know how to drive manuals🤦🏼♂️ So I guess the stick can be a form of security lol😂😂😂
Unless you're British lol, like me where we actually learn to drive a manual car and most British people have driven manual cars for most of their life
Most people in USA...In a Europe mostly driving manuals......and today they have 6 speeds.... :)
Well. Thieves know how to drive a manual lol
When the cop takes your key 🤣
Be it the slowest car ever, sounds like a sports car as it runs!🏁 🙄 Vrooomm 2:11
my 98 dodge ram (manual) was able to have the key removed while driving but once you turned it off you couldn't get it to turn back on without it. This, this is a whole new level
The keys on older pickups are primarily designed just to push the pins in the right position so the key barrel can turn. We have a 91 Jeep Wrangler Renegade and removing the key from the ignition while driving doesn't do anything. The ignition can turn between accessory and start without a key. If you turn an older style barrel to lock without the key, it will become stuck in lock until you use the key again. Practically scarred the shit out of some of my passengers removing the key while going down the road.
Next video
What happens if you put your manual transmission into reverse while driving
Depends on the car. Modern manuals literally won't let you it physically prevents a shift from gear into reverse while you're moving, some older cars I think it'd actually go into neutral, and others it'd destroy your transmission.
When I drove my 91 olds cutty wit my friends I'd put ur into natural n take the key out and turn off the lights goin 70... they freak out lmfaoo
I don't know about in brand new cars, but I know that the 2003 Honda Accord that I drive, you can cut off the engine & still keep coasting unless you turn the key to fully off so you can take it out. If you turn the key to just radio, it'll keep going, but you'll have no lights or spedometer, but if you turn it back to "on," you can keep coasting. I did this going down a multi-mile grade, but I wouldn't recommend it because you lose power braking very quickly & then you'll have a hard time stopping.
The ignition is messed up!!
He clearly doesn't understand how it works..lol. it's broken
Seen 7 different types of your videos dude And love them all !!!
This guy is awesome... he's got videos with stuff I have always wondered about since childhood... 😄
In next week's episode, I'll remove one of the wheels at 40mph with the key in the glove box 😳
* looses key
Oh its no big deal il just drive home without it
Seems like a good car to steal
ive known this since i was super young. me mum used to have a van thats key didnt lock in when she drove it so shed pull it out just to show us for fun and it always blew our minds
seen a '98 ranger do that. Always thought it was so that you could turn the passenger airbag on/off while the engine is running as that was for some reason an actual switch that used the key (probably only as a lever though). at least on that truck if the ignition was in the "lock" position then it required the key to turn, but once out of lock it could turn to on, off, start, or even back to the locked position, accessory is on the other side of lock so if left in that position it would have to turn past lock to do anything else essentially still being "secure". that accessory position makes me think it was intentional, but maybe it's just from being a worn out lock
His channel must be struggling financially if he's resorting to this
You got it
That’s hilarious
the mechanism is worn. Old Holdens (Australian GM's) used to have that happen when they were well used. Btw be careful turning the ignition off while driving - steering lock will engage!
This has to be one of my biggest questions when I was younger to be solved
With the 2016 malibu idk if you reviewed that ignition one but you can start it back up if you forget the key unless you push the button 5 times
