The Ignition Lock Cylinder by Toyota Tacoma allows engine operation with the same key only. Thus, it helps prevent unauthorized operation. The Ignition Lock Cylinder contains metal tumblers that are shaped to match the cuts on the inserted key. When the key is turned, the tumblers align and the Ignition Lock Cylinder turns a shaft that actuates the ignition switch on the steering column. In start, the switch sends battery power to the starter, fuel injection, and ignition circuits. The on position maintains power for the engine and components. The acc position powers items like the radio without running the engine. When the key is in the off position, power is cut off and when it is placed in the lock position, the Ignition Lock Cylinder locks the steering column and enables key removal while locking the shifter in park in an automatic transmission. In the Toyota lineup, the same mechanical security feature for power distribution is also applied by Tacoma. Also, proper operation in a Toyota Tacoma supports coded key recognition that blocks starting with an unrecognized key. When your Ignition Lock Cylinder wears out, it becomes difficult to turn, disrupting the electrical connection. Each of these replacement parts is cataloged as Toyota Tacoma Ignition Lock Cylinder assemblies designed to fit the truck.
