Hello to all!
 
I can't turn the key in the ignition lock! Neither red key works! I left it overnight soaked in WD-40, see tomorrow if it helps.
 
 Please, advise how i can remove the barrel without causing it and the car too much destruction. Please, write to my e-mail afanasiev77@mail.ru  
 
I'm well aware this info is not for open forum!
 
 I'm stranded so quick replies will be much apreciated.
 
My car is: 2.016V '95 VIN wfofxxgagfsd37482 I live and drive it in RUSSIA!
 
Please, Help!!!

There is no secret .. brute force!!. However as Johnnycab says persevere with the normal key. Try turning and pulling/pushing at the same time. In order to remove the barrell properly you must get the key to turn to Position 1. IF you get it to turn to Position 1.... LEAVE IT THERE .  Go to this page and select 'Ignition lock'.http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/intbasicelec.htm.

could the steering lock failing to come off also cause this?

hrmm
i managed to ulock the steering lock
by removing the the cowling
and getting a small screwdriver and lifting the little metal clip that drops into the steering lock.
this gave me the chance to remove the ignition

What you do is that you take a 7 mm drill into the ign lock barrel, than a 11 mm drill and drill about 15mm into the barrel. Than you can get out the parts inside adn take a screwdriver to turn the lock around. Then you take out the cylinder and replace it with a new one Smiley

Hello!
 
Thanks to all for advice. I managed to remove the barrel without damage. I dismantled the cowling, removed the ignition contacts - black plastic thing with wires soldered to it (but be careful with its plastic clips!) Then I tried to turn the Key pushing it inwards. An bingo - it turned freely. I tried to repeat the trick with contacts on but to no avail. Without them there is some slack in the shaft coming out from the barrel - and that helped me! The rest is history!  Wink

Hello!
 
 FMDs in Russia sell them only in sets (ignition, two doors and boot) and 2 weeks' wait. And door and boot locks still work OK! I've rebuilt it and cut a new key!
