Default re: Sticky Ignition Key Fix for all Crossfires 2004 thru 2006

The back of the ignition is hitting a bracket that is is mounted on some tubular steel. I have watched the removal video on Youtube. I wiggled mine out the same way. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I had the same problem... a little elbow grease is all thats needed. It is a very tight fit for that last 1/2" but it will go if you coax it. Of course, it has to be clear of any bracket etc.
