I lost key for my vehicle listed above, and want to remove ignition switch so locksmith can make a new key. Will program key afterwards.
Thanks

You may not have to replace the switch if they can just program a new key but this would require have an existing key programmed.

If they don't then they can use the proper scan tool to program new keys, again without replacing the switch.

However, I included the process below for the ignition switch and programming keys in case you need this as well.

Please let us know if you have other questions. Thanks
