I'd recommend getting a service manual first. I got one for my 2005 2500 cummins from www.promanuals.net. I also had to to remove the oil pan and replace it with another one.

If the pan is not broken free all the way around, you will need to make sure it is. Then the oil pump pick up tube is going to mess with you, and you may have to turn the crank manually to get the crank journal out of your way. Drop the pan down and forward only -Ned_

Turn key to on, then off, then on, then off, then on & leave it on, (not start, just to on) then count the number of flashes of check engine light. It will flash,then have a small pause, then flash again. It will be a 2 digit number, for example: 2 flashes, pause, 2 more flashes, will be code 22. 3 flashes, pause, then 5 more flashes would be code 35. When you get 5 flashes,pause, then 5 more, That is code 55 which just means end of message. Get back to us with codes & we'll advise of what to look for.
SOURCE: HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO REPAIR A IGNITION SWITCH
Flat rates can vary from $70 an flat rate hr. to $125 per flat rate hour depending on the state that you live in; however, a flat rate hr is the time that is allowed for the repair. That job should be rated at about 1 1/2 hr +/- an hr. to complete plus the cost of the part. Whatever the flat rate would cost...no matter if the mechanic takes 5 hrs, the cost should not exceed whatever the flat rate has been estimated to be, so get the estimate first before having the work done.
