Ignition Repair & Replacement
Key won’t turn, or the cylinder feels rough? Miami Key Masters repairs or replaces worn ignitions, restoring smooth, reliable starts without expensive dealership labor.
Smooth Starts Restored
With time and constant use, ignition cylinders can jam, spin freely, or break keys inside. Our technicians diagnose the root cause—worn wafers, bent tumblers, or electronic switch failure—and provide the best fix. We carry OEM-grade cylinders, switches, and wafers for popular models, enabling same-day repairs. After installation, we cut or re-pin keys to match, lubricate the mechanism, and confirm effortless turning and starter engagement

FAQ's
How do I know if I need ignition repair or full replacement?
We test the cylinder, wafers, and switch. Minor wear often needs re-pinning; severe damage or electronic failure calls for replacement
Can you match the new ignition to my existing key?
Yes—when possible, we re-pin the cylinder so your door and ignition use the same key for convenience
Will steering-wheel airbags be affected?
No. Our process follows manufacturer guidelines and isolates the airbag system before work begins
How long does the job take?
Most repairs finish within an hour. Full replacements plus re-keying may take up to 90 minutes
Is there a warranty on parts and labor?
We back ignition work with a one-year warranty against defects or installation errors
