I need to replace my ignition switch, but I can't find it. Not the lock cylinder not where the key goes. The actual electrical switch part is what I'm looking for.

Hello,

The ignition switch is located under the steering wheel. You will have to remove the pane right under the steering wheel in order to access it.

Here is a helpful video showing the location and procedure:

Thank you.
