Our mobile service is designed to bring specialist ignition assistance directly to suitable accessible vehicle locations, reducing the need to arrange vehicle recovery to a workshop for appropriate ignition-related faults.
Repair Before Replacement Where Appropriate
A faulty ignition barrel does not always require complete replacement. Depending on the design and condition of the component, a suitable ignition barrel may be repairable or rebuildable.
The correct solution depends on the vehicle, the type of ignition system and the condition of the internal mechanical components.

- Ignition barrel jammed
- Ignition barrel seized
- Key stuck in the ignition
- Key difficult to insert or remove

Common Symptoms of a Faulty Ignition Barrel
Mechanical ignition problems often become progressively worse. Having the ignition assessed when symptoms first appear may help prevent the mechanism from becoming completely jammed.
Key Becoming Difficult to Turn
Increasing resistance when turning the key can indicate wear or damage developing inside the ignition barrel mechanism.
Key Needs Wiggling
If the key needs repeated movement before the ignition turns, internal mechanical wear may be preventing normal operation.
Ignition Completely Jammed
A worn or damaged ignition barrel can eventually seize, preventing the key from rotating and leaving the vehicle unable to start normally.
Key Stuck in the Ignition
Internal barrel damage or wear may prevent the key from returning to the correct removal position.
Key Broken Inside Ignition
Excessive force applied to a stiff or seized ignition can cause a vehicle key to snap inside the ignition mechanism.
Ignition Turns but Vehicle Does Not Respond
If the mechanical barrel appears to operate normally, the fault may involve the electrical ignition switch or another component within the starting system.

Mobile Ignition Repairs in Crawley, Horsham & Burgess Hill
Mr Ignition provides specialist mobile ignition repair services for suitable cars and vans across Crawley, Horsham, Burgess Hill and surrounding areas.
Mechanical ignition problems can make a vehicle increasingly difficult to operate and may eventually leave the driver unable to start the vehicle. Common symptoms include an ignition key becoming stiff, requiring repeated movement before turning or refusing to rotate completely.
Our mobile service is designed to bring appropriate ignition repair expertise directly to suitable accessible vehicle locations within our established regional coverage area.
Mobile Ignition Barrel Repair
The ignition barrel is the mechanical component into which the vehicle key is inserted on conventional key-operated ignition systems.
Over time, internal mechanical components can become worn or damaged. This may cause the key to become increasingly difficult to turn and can eventually result in the ignition becoming completely jammed.
Where suitable, an existing ignition barrel may be assessed for repair or rebuilding rather than automatically being replaced.
Ignition Barrel Rebuilding
Depending on the design of the ignition barrel and the condition of its internal components, rebuilding may be an appropriate solution for certain mechanical ignition faults.
For suitable vehicle applications, repairing or rebuilding the original ignition mechanism may allow the existing vehicle key to continue operating the ignition.
Whether rebuilding is possible depends on the exact vehicle, ignition design and extent of mechanical damage.
Mobile Ignition Barrel Replacement
An ignition barrel that is excessively worn, damaged or seized may be unsuitable for repair and require replacement.
Vehicle ignition barrels are not universal. The correct replacement depends on the vehicle manufacturer, model, year and individual vehicle specification.
Mr Ignition provides mobile ignition barrel replacement for suitable vehicles where replacement is the appropriate solution following assessment of the ignition problem.
Jammed or Seized Vehicle Ignition
A jammed ignition can leave the vehicle unusable even when the correct key is available.
In many cases, drivers notice warning signs before the ignition completely seizes. The key may become stiff, require repeated movement or only turn when positioned in a particular way.
Continuing to force a failing ignition can potentially increase the risk of further mechanical damage or the key breaking inside the ignition mechanism.
Avoid Forcing a Jammed Ignition Key
If your ignition key has become very difficult to turn, applying excessive force may damage the key or ignition mechanism further.
If the key is repeatedly sticking or refusing to turn, an appropriate assessment of the ignition barrel can help identify the underlying mechanical problem.
Broken Key Extraction from the Ignition
A vehicle key can sometimes snap inside the ignition, particularly when force is applied to a mechanism that has already become stiff or partially seized.
Where suitable, specialist extraction can be used to remove the broken section of key from the ignition mechanism.
If an underlying ignition barrel problem contributed to the key breaking, the barrel should also be assessed to determine whether repair, rebuilding or replacement is required.
Key Stuck in the Ignition
A key that cannot be removed normally may indicate a problem within the ignition barrel mechanism or another related component.
Forcing the key may risk damaging either the key or the ignition further. The appropriate solution depends on the vehicle and the cause of the problem.
Ignition Switch Replacement
On many conventional key-operated vehicles, the mechanical ignition barrel and electrical ignition switch are separate components.
The ignition barrel handles the mechanical movement of the key, while the electrical ignition switch is responsible for switching relevant vehicle electrical circuits.
If the key and mechanical barrel operate normally but the vehicle does not respond correctly, the electrical ignition switch may require investigation.
Ignition-Related Vehicle Non-Start Problems
A vehicle that will not start does not automatically have a faulty ignition barrel. Several components within the starting and security system can produce similar symptoms.
If the symptoms indicate a suitable mechanical ignition or ignition switch problem, specialist assessment can help identify whether the fault involves the barrel, switch or another related component.
Correctly identifying the affected component before replacing parts can help avoid unnecessary work.
