Could someone post a link to Vikki's instructions from last year? I was going to replace my cylinder very soon, and all info is appreciated.
I've always been able to remove my key while the engine is running, and I know it's the cylinder, but I never got around to replacing it. But just this year, I began getting the dreaded "buzzer" sound even when the key is OUT of the ignition. You have to wiggle the cylinder a little to get it to stop.
Incidentally, you have no idea how many people, unfamiliar with the old GM cars or have never ridden in one, freak out when they hear that buzzer! many of the "yung uns" never heard that classic 70's GM buzzer before. I simply tell them that's the way they used to build cars, before the days of keyless entry and electronic chimes.
Some kids don't know what window cranks are. They find them fun to play with watching the glass move with human power.
thats funny...when my now 33 yr old son was 7 or 8 he wanted to play with the buttons on the elctric windows ,see then=m go up and down...he grew up with crank windows in my car...and when I got a car w elctric ones , I thought he was going to wear them out!
