Frequently Asked Questions about Ignition Repair in Ashby de la Zouch

How much does ignition repair cost in Ashby de la Zouch?

It depends on the make, model and whether the ignition barrel, the steering lock or the key is at fault. Send us the details and we will quote first.

What is the difference between an ignition barrel and an ignition switch?

The ignition barrel is the lock cylinder the key goes into. The ignition switch sits behind it and sends power to the car. If the key will not turn the barrel is usually at fault, and if the car will not start the switch may be failing. We repair and replace both.

Can you remove a key snapped in the ignition?

Yes. We remove broken key pieces from the ignition barrel and then repair or replace the barrel if it has been damaged. Message us your car details and a photo if you can.

Can you repair an ignition barrel at my home in Moira or Measham?

Both keys of my Mini One needed replacing as they were both losing their charge. They were sealed remotes and batteries can’t just be changed easily. The main Mini dealer wanted an eye watering amount to just get one key done.. and would take 7-10 days. Carlos came to my home and in about an hour I had 2 keys which work perfectly. So grateful I gave this company a try instead of the dealer. Highly recommended.

I replaced the key fob housing for a colleague's car; everything worked, but the immobilizer caused an issue. I communicate with them online; they scheduled an appointment for two hours later, arrived right on time, and finished the job in 20-30 minutes. They offered a better price than the others. I was very satisfied with the service—fast and reliable.

Very professional. Punctual. Knows what he does. I lost my only key, and Carlos came and saved me. It was a complex process. I had one locksmith before Carlos who came, assessed the situation, and tried different blades but was unsuccessful. The other guy said, “I can fix it, but I will double the price.” Carlos came, and all he said was, “Leave it with me.” I felt reassured and knew I was in safe hands. Carlos still did the job with 2ish hours and for the price that we agreed on over the call. I of course do recommend Carlos, and he will be my first bloke to go to if I have a similar issue. Thanks Carlos.

It was a pleasure to deal with top motor keys. Carlos the fitter did a first class job in a little under 2 hrs. I had the auto watch ghost -II fitted and he explained everything about it's function to me. If anyone is thinking about having one of these installed.. don't hesitate if you value your vehicle.. other than towing it away there's no way any scumbag can start your car and take it. Carlos was very professional and tidy. You wouldn't know he'd fitted anything. First class job and worth the money 👍
