BMW M3 Ignition Lock Cylinder Parts Questions & Answers
- Q: How do you remove and install the Ignition Lock Cylinder on BMW M3?A: On E36 models equipped with the EWS II anti-theft system, the ring antenna surrounding the Ignition Switch must be removed. To do this, disable the SRS and remove the right side lower dash trim and lower steering column cover. Follow the routing of the antenna ring wiring and remove any cable ties as necessary to allow adequate slack in the wiring for removal. Carefully pry the antenna ring off the ignition switch and, if necessary, disconnect the antenna electrical connector auxiliary relay panel. Insert the ignition key and turn 60. Use a 3/64 inch (1.2mm) wire to press down into the small bore on the face of the lock. On vehicles manufactured up to October 1995, turn the lock cylinder back 12 to release. Pull the lock cylinder out. If there is no bore, remove the steering column trim panel and press the bore on the side of the cylinder with a suitable punch to remove the cylinder. Installation is the reverse of the removal procedure.
