Dealing with the same issue on our 99 XJ. I ordered the Dorman part today. Should be here Friday! Thanks for the video! God bless!

You’re welcome! It was such an easy fix once I saw the video about the hammer!

Thank you sir bc it wasn't working for me either and I saw you flip it and keep going and I'm in stuck thanks for the video!

Thanks for this, worked great. A thing that’s critical and not super clear from the instructions is using the key to put the XJ in run, removing old cylinder BEFORE using the key to set the new Dorman cylinder. Not a problem if you have an extra key but if you don’t 😬

@swatscorner Год назад

Yeah, I was not able to turn the key in the ignition until hitting it with a hammer. Thanks for the clarification and thanks for watching!!

Hey man. Hope you doing well. This happened to me today and also the key cant be pulled out. Where did you get that new socket and is it valid with all the jeep keys?. Mine is a 4 door 2000 jeep cherokee XJ limited 2.5 Turbo diesel

Got this at the parts store, and it should fit any Jeep with this type of ignition lock cylinder. I wouldn’t think type of engine would matter. www.oreillyauto.com/detail/c/dorman-oe-solutions/ignition---tune-up/ignition-lock-cylinder/7f728fbed9c8/dorman-oe-solutions-chrome-ignition-lock-cylinder/doe0/924784

Thanks for the video. The hammer thing worked to get her started so I could at least get her home. (I guessed banged it with my first though haha). Saved me the cost of a tow.

Hit the key several times, think it's stuck between on and off, and that might be why it's not working. Does anyone know what to do now. My windows are stuck down. Do I need to replace the entire ignition?

Hope you got it sorted. I was lucky to be able to get this one out!
