REMOVAL & INSTALLATION 1994-95 Accord NOTE: Do not attempt to remove the ignition switch assembly if you do not have replacement bolts available. These special bolts have break-away heads which shear off when tightened. This is an "anti-theft'' measure used to prevent easy removal of the bolts. Fig. 2: Shear bolts must be used for reinstallation key is stuck in broken - 86806113.gif

  1. Disconnect the negative battery cable and disable the SRS system.
  2. Remove the dashboard lower cover/knee bolster.
  3. Remove the steering column covers.
  4. Unplug the ignition switch connector.
  5. Remove the two nuts and two bolts securing the steering column, carefully lower the column assembly.
  6. Use a center punch to mark each of the two shear bolt heads securing the ignition switch assembly to the steering column. Use a 3?16 in. (5mm) drill bit to drill off the heads. Take care not to damage the switch when drilling.
  7. Remove the bolts. Remove the clamp and remove the ignition switch assembly.
  8. Remove the three screws securing the switch and remove the switch. To install:
  9. Make certain the recess of the switch aligns with the tab of the lock housing. Insert the switch and install the retaining screws.
  10. Position the switch assembly on the steering column. Install the new shear bolts; tighten them finger-tight.
  11. Use a wrench or socket of the correct size. Tighten the shear bolts until the heads break off.
  12. Raise the column and install the nuts/bolts. Tighten the nuts to 10 ft. lbs. (13 Nm) and the bolts to 16 ft. lbs. 22 Nm).
  13. Connect the ignition switch wiring harness.
  14. Install the column covers.
  15. Install the dashboard lower cover/knee bolster.

Key is stuck in the ignition

Make sure that the car is fully engaged in park, try rocking the car around just to be sure. Depress the brake pedal and try removing the key again if that doesn't work then there's a chance the key is bent somehow, and is not stuck in there the only way to fix that is to replace ignition or try prying it out but prying it out May result is broken ignition and not being able to use vehicle

Replace ignition key cylinder from 91 Honda accord

the ignition key cylinder comes as a single unit with the ignition lock assembly. if you want to use the same key as before take the entire lock assembly to a lock smith and they would be able to rekey the tumblers to match your old key.

Key is stuck in ignition and wont release. 1999 Honda Accord. Key stuck in accessory mode.

If your car is auto, there should be a cable going from the shifter to the ignition to stop you being able to remove the key unless the car is in park. If the cable has become dislodged or broken your key won't come out. I would remove the shrouds around the column and have a look at the back of the ignition while moving the ahifter in and out of park. If your car is manual , I would suspect a bent key or a contaminated lock ( not common in a car this age ) Try Graphite powder, ( messy but effective ) it should be avaliable from your hardware store. Good Luck!
