Thank you so much for posting this.. I was out at the store with my two young daughters and couldn't get the key out and you saved me. Thank you so very much. It's so appreciated.
Wow! Thank you Thank you! 😁 What a time and money saver! My key too was stuck in my 2013 . Stopped by dealership but all mechanics were all at lunch. Went home, was going to disconnect my battery as it would have gone dead (which is also a pain as there is a computer stuck on top of it ) Thankfully, found your video and in seconds my key was out. So easy a girl like me followed your instruction no problem. Got r done😄
THANKS FOR THE VEDIO I HAVE A 2011 EQUINOX THE COLOM LOOKS LIKE THAT I GOING TO TRY IT SOME MORE TO SEE CAN I GET KEY OUT I AM GOOD BECAUSE ITS IN GARAGE BUT I HAVE TO LEAVE KEY IN IT AND TAKE HOT CABLE ALOOSE AGAIN THANKS FOR THE VEDIO
If I remember correctly, you’ll have to start over by reinserting the key into the ignition, slide the shifter into park. Then follow the process over again.
As others have said, a major THANK U! I just pulled into drive way in my 2017 Equinox & key fob was stuck. No problem with power though. I put it back in twice and both times, that damn fob wouldn’t come out. Guess Im off to a mechanic when I can get an appointment. American cars suck!
This got the job done, thank you sir. But another thing to look at, which turned out to be our problem: Make sure there's nothing at the top end of the shift selector track preventing it from going fully into the park position. Somehow a pop-can tab had gotten itself up there and no one noticed it for two days. One of the kids, cleaning the car so we could leave it at the dealership, noticed it and... voila, problem solved!
"Thank You both" The key came out and I found the issue! 😁 It's been a long day and it would have been even longer if I didn't find this information. We almost had to sleep over in the car 😂 Side Note: My son said that kid must have been cleaning really well! 😅 Then he went back to the car to check ours after we got the key out and bam he find a metal silver thingy.
My Equinox suddenly now wont start, crank and none of the lights come on unless i use my portable jumper, which then the car will start. Also when i turn it off the same thing and the key gets stuck but Nothing. When its on it drives fine but the lights on the dash keep flashing and turning on and off. Could it be the battery??
Same thing just happened to me. 2013 Equinox wouldn't crank & key stuck in ignition. However, once we hooked jumper cables up giving the vehicle power, the key came right out.
Is this a one time fix ? It worked for me once and then of course my dad wanted to see if he could do it it’s his car and it’s stuck again I know we’re idiots but is this only a one time thing? I got it great first time but now I can’t get it again ! Any suggestions??
I have had my key stuck at least 3 times. I didnt know about the hidden hole,I just jiggled the acursed thing a bunch of times while mentally praying and after several minutes it comes out. Great video,thanks bud!!
So grateful for your tip- was panicking thinking I'd hVe to leave my car unsecured with the key in it overnight. Thank you!

The name of the selenoid
It works holy shit thank you!!!
Worked great. Thank you
You couldn’t see nothing but your leg and keys try redoing it over
Same thing just happened to me. 2013 Equinox wouldn't crank & key stuck in ignition. However, once we hooked jumper cables up giving the vehicle power, the key came right out.
Did your car start and work fine after that or did you have to get it serviced ?
@@dayseananderson7719 No it cranked & worked fine after that.
Hey I got a question the same thing happened to me but right now I can't even get my car to start by jumping it
@@ahmedharajli189 The battery may have a dead cell and may need to be replaced. You can usually have them tested at most parts stores
@@chuckie008 thanks, I only got it replaced last year so I’ve been skeptical of it’s dead
Is this a one time fix ? It worked for me once and then of course my dad wanted to see if he could do it it’s his car and it’s stuck again I know we’re idiots but is this only a one time thing? I got it great first time but now I can’t get it again ! Any suggestions??
Vicky O'Connell I’ve done it multiple times. I think you can do it as many times as you want, unless the mechanism is not working.
It worked! Thank you!
thanks for your time showing appreciate it
Thanks for such an informative video.
Thank you so so much !!!!
BOSS!!! 💯 💯
It works..........YAY..........thanks for the video ......you saved my bacon
Now it won’t crank and gets locked up again
Sounds like your battery
@@dennisliverani4293 just bought a new one last week should i try a jump off?
Big help thank you
Thank you so much! This was very helpful!
I have had my key stuck at least 3 times.
I didnt know about the hidden hole,I just jiggled the acursed thing a bunch of times while mentally praying and after several minutes it comes out.
Great video,thanks bud!!
My man!
Yo, man Thank you
Dude thank you so much this just happened to me now and with ur video I got me out, but I still have no power do you know how that can change
I’d start with the battery, check the date to see how old and have it tested. Also check the terminals to make sure they are clean.
Thank you for this short, simple and concise video!
Thank u
