This is my first post I have a 2003 honda civic lx five speed. Today I went to put my key in the ignition and it would not turn over. I tryed for over a hour and nothing. I know its the
Ignition lock cylinder. I plan to do this by myself but I don't know how and even if its something I can even do its looks ez but of I could get some pointers that would help.
 
How do you know it's the ignition lock cylinder?

When you say you tried to start the car did the dash lights come on?
Did you check the battery connections?

I am interested in your trouble shooting process.
 
The key won't turn. The dome lite comes on. The car has 279000 on it I deliver pizza in it. So I'm thinking sticking the key in and out 6 days a week form 5-6 hours a day has done it in. .I have had someone look at it and they told me I had to replace it. The same thing happened to the doors locks to. The only thing the key works on it the trunk.
 
try wiggling the steering wheel back and forth while trying to turn the key
