Product Description

This ignition barrel and key set is designed for secure vehicle starting and ignition control. The set includes a metal ignition barrel cylinder and two cut-style keys with black plastic heads, suitable for mechanical ignition systems. It is commonly used in certain Toyota models, including the Condor, Hilux YN30, YN140, and Corolla models from 1995 to 2004.

Fitment should always be confirmed for your specific vehicle model, year, engine size, and engine code, as ignition barrel designs can vary even within the same make and model range. This set is intended to replace worn or faulty ignition barrels, restoring reliable engine starting and key security.

Common symptoms of a failing ignition barrel include difficulty turning the key, keys that stick or will not turn, intermittent starting problems, or the key failing to engage the ignition switch. Other signs may include the ignition feeling loose, excessive play in the key slot, or the key being able to be removed while the engine is running.

When replacing the ignition barrel and key, ensure the new set matches your vehicle’s specifications to avoid compatibility issues. Professional installation is recommended if you are unsure about the process, as correct alignment and security are essential for safe operation.
