Key Will not turn off.. shifter or ign switch???
So, the 2009 HHR will not turn off. I read about the shifter switch and assumed that was it. Here is my question, though. When I push the plunger for the key release it does not release the key to turn. I pulled a fuse and the battery to shut it off. so the question is is it the shifter switch or is it the ignition switch??? the fact that the key wont release is confusing me.....

Sounds exactly like mine, and it was the ignition cylinder.

1. The ignition switch 2. The ignition lock mechanism Both are actuated when you put the key in the ignition switch but they have different functions. I can only assume they might be integrated into one replacement part but it sounded like they were dealt with separately for warranty. SF |
