About the service
Professional Ignition Repair in Granada Hills
You're parked on a quiet Granada Hills street, late for something, and the key just sits there. It won't turn, or it turns and the engine does nothing. Either way you're stuck above the 118, watching the morning slip away. This corner of the north Valley runs hot and dry most of the year, and that heat is hard on plastic steering-column parts and worn cylinder pins. We get a lot of these calls from the older streets around the Old Granada Village area and out toward North Hills.
Ignition faults split two ways, and the fix depends on which one you have. A key that won't turn at all is usually a tired cylinder. A key that turns but gets no crank often points at the electrical switch behind it. We sort that out before we touch a tool.

What to expect
What Happens When You Call Us in Granada Hills
When our van reaches you, the first thing we do is figure out whether the problem lives in the mechanical cylinder or the electrical switch. We check whether the key turns, whether the dash lights come up, and whether you hear the starter click. A broken key snapped off in the slot gets extracted on the spot, and a binding cylinder usually gets rebuilt or replaced right there in your car. No tow.
Most jobs wrap up in your driveway or wherever you're stranded, typically inside an hour once we've confirmed the cause. Switch failures can take longer if a part has to be matched to your make. We carry common cylinders and key blanks, cut on-site, and test the engine starts cold before we leave. We answer the phone around the clock across Granada Hills and the surrounding north Valley. Call (818) 398-9391 and tell us exactly what the key does.

Common questions
FAQ
Can you fix the ignition on-site or do I need a tow?
Almost always on-site. We rebuild or replace most ignition cylinders and pull broken keys right where your car is parked in Granada Hills. A tow only comes up when a deeper electrical switch fault needs a dealer-matched part, and we'll tell you that before you spend a dime.
How do you know if it's the switch or the cylinder?
By what the key does. If it won't turn, the mechanical cylinder is binding or worn. If it turns and the dash lights come on but the starter never cranks, the trouble is usually the electrical switch behind the cylinder. We confirm both on arrival before any work begins.
My key turns but the car won't start. What's that?
That's the classic turns-but-no-crank case. The cylinder is fine; the signal to the starter isn't getting through, often a failing ignition switch or its contacts. We test for it directly rather than guessing, since a no-start can also be battery or starter related.
How fast can you get to me in Granada Hills?
We run 24/7 and cover Granada Hills, Northridge, and North Hills, so reach times are usually short. Once we're on-site, a straightforward cylinder rebuild or key extraction often takes under an hour. Switch jobs can run longer if a specific part has to be sourced.
