Ignition locked in 02 Town & Country Limited
Greetings all,
I have an '02 Town & Country limited and discovered today I have a locked ignition. I tried a couple different keys but it won't unlock. What's interesting is that the brake pedal seems as if its already depressed. Anyone have a clue as to what the issue is and if I can take care of it myself? Thanks, Luke |

If what you are referring to is the ignition switch wont turn, try tapping
on the key with a heavy object while trying to turn it. If it turns have the key cylinder replaced and recoded. Glenn Beasley Chrysler Tech |

Turn the wheel slightly, sometimes mine does that if the steering wheel gets
in a bind. "Luke Packard" > wrote in message ... > Greetings all, > > I have an '02 Town & Country limited and discovered today I have a locked > ignition.

On this particular day of this month, in the Year Of The Golden Pig, KYHighlander did state:

It's what they call an 'undocumented feature.' ;^) I know this is gonna sound like you're driving a Windows machine, but pump the brake and turn the wheel /while/ turning the ignition. Works every time, at least on a Canadian R/T. Courtesy of Roadside Assistance, who saved us both us a hassle by telling me this over the 'phone.
