Q: How do you remove and install the ignition switch/key lock cylinder assembly on Honda Crosstour?
A: Remove the dashboard lower cover and the steering column covers. Disconnect the electrical connector from the ignition switch/Ignition Lock Cylinder assembly by depressing the release tab and pulling out the connector. Center-punch the shear bolts that attach the ignition switch/Ignition Lock Cylinder assembly clamp to the steering column, then drill a hole in both bolts and unscrew them with a screw extractor to remove the clamp and the ignition switch/Ignition Lock Cylinder assembly. Install the new ignition switch/Ignition Lock Cylinder assembly on the steering column without the ignition key inserted, then install the mounting clamp and new shear bolts without tightening them yet. Insert the ignition key to verify that it turns freely and that the steering wheel lock functions correctly. Once confirmed, tighten the two shear bolts until the hex heads twist off. The installation process is the reverse of removal.
