The one on my 1983 Dodge van is worn out, it was like that when I bought the van about two years ago.Sometimes it works ok, sometimes I have to rock the key back and forth and try to get the steering wheel to unlock, sometimes it won't rock back and forth, I have to keep on fooling around with it and trying to get the steering wheel to unlock. There was a Dodge recall on some of those 1983 ignition switch/lock cylinders, something about the wafers wearing out too early.Assuming I can buy a new ignition switch/lock cylinder from wherever?, are they hard to install? The van has a tilt steering wheel, if that makes any difference? Could it be the steering wheel lock is affecting the ignition switch/lock cylinder? The ignition switch/lock cylinder on my
1978 Dodge van still works as good as new.Are those two ignition switches/lock cylinders interchangeable?, In case I can't locate a new one for my 1983 Dodge van. cuhulin- posted
