Hi All
I got an old sierra column but no key. I want it all to work & assumed I'd have to get a new barrel from ford. How do I get the old one
out??? Any other ideas

Sure I've read somewhere that they don't come out. I bought my column from a local scrapper and ended up digging through a bucket full to
the brim with various keys. Found the right one eventually.
A bit of slapstick never hurt anyone.

Put the key in and turn it to the run position then use a thin screwdriver or similar to disengage the spring clip down the hole in the housing. Then
jer jer jiggle the key and pull at the same time. I don't know if they do a barrel but you used to be able to get a complete switch. You might
find a barrel from an Escort or Fiesta fits in it if you find one with a key.

yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Pete, he hasn't got the key!
Only option is to drill out the securing peg
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

I have all the answers tonight...
I have a Sierra barrel with a key.
Couple of quid and it's yours if you want?

OOps!!! Biggest drill you own straight down the middle and mangle it out with grips or get a complete switch. It's only held on with grub screws
I think. Look at a Mk2 Fiesta if you can find one they look similar to me.
