Description
Product Overview
This ignition switch set is designed specifically for the Citroën Xsara Picasso, featuring two keys for convenient and secure vehicle access. The set includes locks for the driver and passenger doors, the fuel tank cap, and the ignition switch itself, providing a comprehensive locking solution to enhance vehicle security.
The replacement is suitable for PSA Citroën and Peugeot models that utilize the product codes 4162HK, 4162FF, and 4162CK. The included keys allow for reliable ignition operation, however, the remote key fob and immobilizer chip must be reused from your original vehicle system.
Important: The door locks included may require lubrication or mechanical activation to restore full functionality, as door lock mechanisms can seize over time due to infrequent use or exposure to dirt and corrosion.
Replacement and Maintenance Tips
Installation requires removal of the existing ignition module and door locks, followed by careful fitting of the new set to ensure all locking points align correctly. This is crucial for smooth key operation and secure locking. Regular use and periodic lubrication of door locks and fuel cap locks can help extend the lifespan of these components, which commonly wear due to mechanical stress and environmental conditions.
Failure of the ignition switch or door locks can result in difficulties starting the vehicle or securing it properly, thus timely replacement is critical for safety and operational reliability.
