I got a new Fiero about 4 months ago 85 GT 63K miles 4 speed.
Last couple of days I noticed when I turn the ignition key "Yes
depressing the clutch" it does not turn over first time I have to back
key up and turn it again. This morning I had to do it 3 times to get
it to catch so I did not drive it today. This evening same thing but
this time I when turned it all the way and nothing happened I jiggled
and pushed on the key and then it caught and turned over. So it sounds
like the key lock cylindar is getting bad. O yes forgot to mention
ever since I got the car only one (1) key it never went into the
accessory position which I assume it has as my 85 2m4 has one. Also
sometimes turning the key to lock position it also hangs up and I have
to jiggle it and yes pressing on the release lever just trying to
cover all bases.
Will I have to pull off the steering wheel to get the lock set out ?
Is there a good diagram online showing the procedure ?
I have a 85 Fiero Service manual but it does not cover from what I can
see to much detail on it.
Any help would be great I never had to work on the ignition lock
before on any car.
Thanks
Hank
