Hi.
Forum newbie needs some help. Have a 2013 NC700X that I had some problems with getting the key in recently. After some jiggling, I was able to get the key but then it wouldn't come out. After some more jiggling, finally got it out but then couldn't get the key in. AT ALL. Plus I had the steering locked. Only option was to put on a dolly and haul it in to a dealer. A friend who is more mechanically inclined, helped me take the front apart and get the ignition out. Sprayed some WD40 and was able to get whatever was stuck loose but it appears that the cylinder is VERY notchy and one of the brass thingamajig pops out every now and then. I think I need/want to replace the whole thing. So my question is: do I need the whole ignition with a new key (part number 35010-MSG-A31 Lock Set) or do I just need the key cylinder (part 35100-MSG-A31 SWITCH ASSY., COMBINATION & LOCK). Am confused and looking for some help ...
Apologies for the long-winded lead up. And thanks in advance.
