Morning all. Does anyone know how to cure my stuck ignition key?
Just been to shops, went ot turn off the ignition and the key won't turn to '0'.
Checked the gear is in park etc and driven around, parked again- still no joy!
Typical on a bank holiday.

Thanked 2 Times in 2 Posts Help!!! Stuck key
Hi all- got a problem with my ignition- several views on the 40/50 series forum, but no replies... so in my need for answers, I open it to all.
I have a V50 T5 geatronic, 2004.
The key is stuck between '0' and 'I' on the ignition and won't come out, leaving it insecure and running down the battery.
Any ideas? It is in Park and I have tried starting/stopping and retrying, but no joy.

Taken dash housing off (fun in the rain) and 'jiggled'.
Just not sure where or what I need to tighten, but at least I can lock it!

Placed it on the wider forum because there had been several views but no responses on the 40/50 forum.

Thanked 887 Times in 593 PostsNo worries mate, glad it's fixed, just means more clearing-up work for the mods if multiple threads appear. Cheers...
