Tips for when the car lock cylinder won't turn are to gently twist the key with your right hand while lightly turning the steering wheel with your left hand. The lock cylinder, also known as the ignition switch, is a multi-position switch that requires the corresponding key to operate it. The ignition switch is typically used to control the ignition circuit, instrument circuit, electronic control system, starting circuit, and auxiliary electrical circuits. The method for replacing a car lock cylinder is: 1. Remove the plastic cover and use a hex screwdriver to disassemble the ignition switch; 2. Unplug the ignition switch connector, detach the lock cylinder, and install the new lock cylinder. When installing the lock cylinder, insert the key into the lock cylinder, turn it to the 'on' position, and press the metal block on the ignition switch face. If the ignition switch is not disassembled, you cannot press the metal block.
