Car Forum / Volvo Cars / April 2007my freakin volvo
For about a week now My 960 96 volvo key was stuck on the ignition switch. Yes car turns on and all but I cant get the key out of the switch If anyone nows of a mechanic in or around the area of L.A please let me know. Gosh, do they *have* mechanics in or around the L.A. area? Not much of a population base there, after all..... http://quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/states/06/0644000.html LOL K. > For about a week now My 960 96 volvo key was stuck on the ignition > switch.

Probably the cable from the shifter is not allowing the release of the key. (i.e., the cable is not moving the interlock to the Park position.) Try whacking the shifter when it's in the park position, see if that helps.  SignatureMike F. Thornhill (near Toronto), Ont. Replace tt with t (twice!) and remove parentheses to email me directly.

Actually I just got your message and this is what ended up happening this mechanic that has been a friend of mine for many years he doesn't work on Volvos but he got tired of me complaining so he took my car for a few hours and problems been fixed since then. If you want to know what happened ask me. > > anitagonzale...@yahoo.com wrote: > > [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > my car for a few hours and problems been fixed since then. If you > want to know what happened ask me. We always like to see the resolution here, also it helps the next guy, if he knows how to use google groups. SignatureMike F.

I know of a really good shop in Pasadena, Independant Volvo which surprisingly enough is right around the corner from the Pasadena Volvo Dealer who I would never let them touch any of my Volvos. B.

Did any soft drinks, orange juice or other sticky drinks get spilled on the transmission tunnel? |
