If it is like the '97 SC2, which it likely is:
Remove the plastic cover from around the steering column.
Turn the old ignition cylinder to ACC (I know what you are about to say... If you can turn the cylinder, why replace it. Unfortunately I can't answer that. I had to drill out the old lock to replace the one on my saturn. Please consult a locksmith before doing so. You don't want to drill into the wrong parts.)
With the old cylinder turned to ACC, there is a small button on the side (probably upper right towards the air vents) Push this button in and the old cylinder should pull out. Installation is reverse of removal (without the drilling...)
You have to get the ignition core to turn otherwise you will have to replace the housing,if you get it to turn than put it in the run position, On the right side of the ignition switch housing there will be a small hole (2002 Saturn). Put a piece of a coat hanger in the hole. This will allow you to PUSH/PRESS UP up on a spring loaded tab/latch (about 1/2 inch in) to remove the ignition core/cylider. However if you are having trouble, the key is most likely worn excessivly. You will need the key to pull on to get the cylinder out. IF THE KEY will not stay in the cylinder than USE A SCREWDRIVER to lightly pry out the core. If you are having trouble than here are two tips, turn the key slightly back I MEAN SLIGHTLY BACK and try again also if the vehcicle has an automatic transmission remove the shift interlock cable from under the housing this will be a black plastic piece right underneath the cylinder, here the key will probably break the 3 little plastic clips. No worrys... If and when you do this, simply reattach it by wraping a wire tie around it, if you are curious how i know this it is because I'm a technician that works at a Saturn dealership.
This is a very simple repair. Ijust installed a new one on my Saturn Sc2 94 just like yours. To start disconnect the battery, then take out all the screws on the lower steering colum cover. This is a pain and required me to drill a bigger hole seeing as i did not have a small enough socket to fit in the hole that keeps the top and bottom halves to gether. After you have taken the top off you will notcie the bottom is held in my the ignition cylinder cover. Pop off that black cover on the ignition and slide off the case. Then on the top of the housing for the ignition is a little tab you must push and it pops right out. You may need to pop out 2 sets of wiring (easy) to get to the tab. I replaced mine but now i need a new switch becasue my car wont shut off ~_~
The only way I can explain it is to follow the wiring from your coil pack (where the spark plugs are) and the wires plug into the ignition module. Also go go www.wrenchead.ca and it has a manual that explains all. if you don't know the answer to a question please keep your moth shut ,please don't waste my time
I do not have an answer but I also have a 1994 Toyota Camry that will not start and has no spark, I swapped out the ignition module to no avail, the distributor and rotor appear fine. Any help
4 - modern combustion engines use 1 spark plug per cylinder. ANSWER The 1994 Ford Ranger 2.3 L has Ford's twin plug ignition system , so there are 8 spark plugs The 94-95 Ranger 2.3 has twin plug system, 2 per cylinder =8
its a pain. pull the steering wheel, you will need a wheel puller. the u must take off the turn signal parts and the retaining plate. then there is a release for the tumbler unit, push the release then slide out the old ignition switch. -thorr On the 83 model chev halfton the ignition switch is down on the coloumn closer to the fire wall thers is 4 bolts holding it to the coloumn, remove them and then rotate the switch to remove the rod coming from the ignition lock(where the key goes) and then unplug the wiring harness from it.
Sounds like the bearings or bushings in your distributor are worn. With the cap off, check for any wobble or play on the shaft. If so replace the distributor.
Should be correct
The 1994 Pontiac Grand Am ignition lock cylinder is held in place by the retaining ring at the top of the cylinder. Remove the retaining ring. Remove the wiring harness from the back of the cylinder.

You can replace the ignition lock cylinder in your 1994 Pontiac Firebird without removing the steering will. Remove the retaining ring at the top of the ignition cylinder. The ignition cylinder will slide out.
rip it out or call a locksmith it happened with my 94 tbird
remove the shroud covering the steering coloum and turn the key to the on position push in release pin over ignition and pull cylinder out.
i don't really see the point in doing this it would take quite a bit of time to disassemble the ignition and remove all the tumblers if it can even come apart it would be a lot easier to just buy a used switch and change it out. it might be possible to do but imo not worth the effort
The 4 cylinder Saturn's all had timing chains.
Remove the retaining ring at the top of your 1994 Chevy Corsica ignition switch. Slide the ignition switch out and remove the wiring harness. Reverse the process to install the new ignition switch.

Locksmiths have special tools and can remove broken keys from cylinders. Is the cylinder in a door or the ignition? First, make sure the lock is in the off position for ignition or the verticle position for a door. Then shoot in alot of lubricant. Next wiggle and jiggle the key while pulling gently. If not possible, take to locksmith.
If you are talking about installing or removing the ignition lock cylinder I believe the key has to be in the run position.
