Hi,

It sounds like the actuator blade wasn't properly aligned. Do me a favor. Take a look at the directions I attached below. See if there is anything you may have missed.

Let me know.

Take care,

Joe

See pics below.

Hi,

The actuator blade is where the lock cylinder and the actual ignition switch (electrical portion) joint together. Let me know if you are able to locate it.

Take care,

Joe
