My car will start with any key and it will also start with out a key
does anybody know why my car starts without a key it was like this when i bought it and the car has never been hotwired i would like to know how to fix this because my driver door does not unlock from the outside so i dont want it stolen
|
you can also pull the key out of the ignition when you turn it over
|
lol bad steering lock assembly. You can swap the unit from another car if you can get a key.
|
yeah im kind of worried about it because i have some people in my school that would probably steal it from me so every time i do lock my driver door i have to unlock the passenger then unlock the driver door from the inside i also was able to turn the car over with a key from a 1995 s10
|
Short term. Wire a fuel pump cut off switch and hide it. They may steal it, but not get very far.
|
the kid would steal it because he always challenges me to race with his stock civic and i always make fun of him and his car
|
your ignition is shot. just replacing the ignition cylinder should solve your problem.
same thing with a 1980 CJ7 Jeep i used to have, i never had to worry about keys though, lol. |

YUP, that sucks...for the time being i would definetely install a kill switch and/or take out the egi fuse everytime i park....how long ago did you buy the car? maybe the previous owner plans on taking the car back without your permission :O happened to my uncle and his camry...gl.

iceblue - you don't even know what the fuck you talking about....there is a difference between the steering column lock and the ignition.
the column lock doesnt have a goddamn thing to do with any key being able to turn the tumblers in an ignition. the problem is a worn ignition! do a little reading and figure out the difference between an ignition and the steering column lock |

See ^ they are one unit. That is how I referred to them. regardless the unit needs to be replaced. :bigthumb: And this is the ignition. http://home.pct.edu/%7Eebeaar09/push...ofcylinder.jpg Pic’s courtesy of WonkoTheSane :D |
hrmm... i have the exact same problem. when i start the car. i can take out the keys and the car will still be running. also, when i try to lock the driver side door. this is what happens. i open the door, manully push the lock down to lock the door, close the door, and then i can open the door back.
it only happens for the driver side tho. the passenger side is fine. so the only way i can lock the drivers side is open the passenger side, reach over to lock the drivers door, and then lock the passenger side. when i try to unlock the car. i can only unlock it from the passenger side.... wierd... |
Haha, you have to hold the door handle up when closing the door, otherwise it will unlock.
|
lol, never had a japanese car before I guess, lol.
