Happened twice now but this time it wont turn at all with either key. Turns to first click ok then only goes halfway to the main ignition click the battery light comes on when its turned but it won't go that final bit to bring other dash lights up. Put some wd40 in there but what's the procedure for removing the barrell does it need to turn all the way to get it out I have MOT Saturday so needs sorting by then. I know a place that can profile locks to keys so can get it repaired

Remove steering wheel cowling (3x t20 screws underneath), remove small screw in side of ignition barrel holder (up near end where you put the key in). Unplug 3 big plugs, insert key and turn whilst trying to push in the little tab in the side of the barrel holder, have lots of fun trying to get the plugs out.
Hate to say it and im not 100% so could be wrong but i think you have to turn the key to cranking before the tab will move and the barrel will come out.

Im pretty sure when i took one out, i was pressing on the tab on the side with a screwdriver turning the key slowly at the same time and eventually it went.

Not a bad idea if nicking it but seeing as hes not, it will need a new steering column if he does that.
