I got mine all apart and can't tell which part you are talking about replacing. Is it in the left or right side? I started it and can't see anything revolving except the key itself. Please help me out. Do you have a part #? Thanks!

It's bolted to the back of the ignition. It's cylindrical and black and white and made of plastic, it's the peice where all the wires and soldered to.

Also check a haynes manual section 12-7


As for a part #, I have no clue lol it's been like 3 years since I changed it, you might check with the dealer as they would most likely know.

Yea,I think I know what you are talking about. Except it doesn't move, I guess you thought it did,it has been a while. I was looking for something to move when I turned the key.
If you remember,did any of your wires look damaged when you decided to replace it? Mine don't, but I hope this is my problem. Thanks!
