Key sticking in ignition???

[thor452]

is the key switch plastic or metal on the inside? would heating the key with a flame risk melting something?

Remove the cover were the ignition switch is mounted to. Bring it inside for a day. Used compressed air and blow out any remaining moisture. Give it a quick spray of WD-40 or Fluid Film. Reinstall panel and it will be better than new.

I've always heard from Locksmiths that graphite spray is best for locks. A little messy though.

Graphite will not displace the moisture like WD-40 or Fluid Film.

Exactly!!

Went the Fluidfilm route. Went looking for the hot babe, but fluidfilm was far cheaper.

Worked so well, I sprayed it in my Jeep door that was always freezing up- feels like a new lock mechanism now.

Thanks
