If you’ve ever been in a situation where you needed to take car keys out of the ignition but couldn’t find them, then this article is for you. We’ll teach you how to do it without any tools or damaging your car.
How to take car keys out of ignition
If you find yourself stuck in your car with the key in the ignition, there are a few things you can do to try and get yourself out.
The first thing you can try is to jiggle the key chain. If the keys are stuck in something else, like the ignition, that might cause them to move.
If that doesn’t work, you can try using a paper clip to pry up on one of the keys. Make sure not to let go of the other key, so you can turn off the car if needed.
If neither of those work, you can try using a key extractor. These tools fit onto the end of a key and help remove the key from the ignition.
How to disable the alarm system
If you want to disable the alarm system on your car, there are a few different ways to go about it.
One way is to locate the “alarm disable” button on the center console or headliner of the car. On some models, this button is hidden behind a panel, so you’ll need to remove the panel to get to it.
Another way is to use a keyless entry remote or garage door opener. Simply press and hold down the button for three seconds, then release it. The alarm will be disabled.

How to remove a steering wheel lock
If your car has a steering wheel lock, you’ll first need to remove the key from the ignition. This is usually done by pulling out the key and then pushing it back in as far as it will go, while turning it. Sometimes the lock can be popped right out with this technique.
If your car doesn’t have a lock, you’ll need to use a key extender. This is a device that attaches to the key ring and gives you an extra length of keys. Insert one end of the key extender into the ignition and twist until it clicks into place. Push the other end of the key extender into the hole on the steering wheel, near where the ignition cable attaches. Turn the key clockwise until it lodges in place.
How to disable the ignition key
If you ever find yourself without your car keys, there are a few simple steps you can take to disable the ignition key.
First, locate the key fob. Most cars have them located on or near the dashboard. If the fob isn’t located near the car’s controls, you may need to remove the ashtray or other obstructions from the area in order to see it. Once you have located the fob, press and hold down the button until the key turns off.
Second, remove the key from the ignition. This can be done by turning it counter-clockwise while pushing down on it. Be careful not to lose it – a replacement cost around $60!

If your car has a power window lock, you’ll need to remove the key from the ignition before you can start the car. Here’s how:
1. Start the car and turn the key to the “On” position.
2. Look behind the steering wheel for a red “Start” button. Push the button to start the car without igniting the engine.
3. If you can’t find the button, look for a green “ACC” or “Clear” light on the dashboard (or on some models, in between the gauges). Touch this light with your finger to turn off all of the car’s lights.
4. Turn your headlights on by pushing in on the switch next to your headlights.
5. Look for a small black knob on either side of your car’s dashboard near your rearview mirror. Turn these knobs until you hear a clicking sound and see a green light come on below them (these are your power window locks).
6. Using your key, unlock both doors and pull them open as far as they will go (be careful not to touch any wires as you do this).
7. Insert your key into
