I ave a 2003 civic which was working fine till yesterday, this afternoon when I tried to start it will not, what happened was I put the key in the ignition and tried to start the car but the key will not move from 0 position, i tried at least 20 times or so, it started. Then I turned it off and tried to start again but the car will not start..........Please help....

 

may try to have a new key made .had same problem on a different vehicle,ended up being the ignition lock cylinder.

 

im pretty sure that he has a chip in his key... try to turn the steering will back and forth while trying to start it. aslo did you hold the brake in? also try to wiggle the shifter a little to make sure its in park.

 

It was the cylinder, i just installed a new one yesterday, thx for your help.

 

Hi vinodpatel52,

I have the same problem now. The dealer wants about a grand for the repair. I've searched for parts online, and only found parts from THIS SELLER. How did you fix yours? Much thanks!

I got it fixed at the honda dealership but they charged me like $500 something with labor and parts.
