Product Description

This Arrowhead Ignition Barrel/Housing Set is designed for reliable operation of your vehicle's ignition system. The set includes a robust metal ignition barrel housing, a separate ignition lock barrel, and two matched ignition keys, ensuring a complete solution for ignition replacement. The components are engineered to restore smooth key operation and secure ignition engagement.

This ignition barrel and housing set is suitable for select VW models, including Golf, Jetta I and II, Fox, Caddy, and Kombi. Due to variations in models and years, always confirm your specific vehicle details, including model, year, engine size, and engine code, before placing your order.

Common symptoms of a worn or faulty ignition barrel include difficulty turning the key, the key sticking or not turning at all, inability to start the vehicle, or the key becoming loose in the ignition. You may also notice intermittent electrical issues or the inability to fully engage the ignition switch.

If you experience these issues, replacing the ignition barrel and housing can restore proper function and security. It is advisable to replace the set at the first sign of failure to avoid being stranded or risking further electrical problems.
