To learn how to replace the ignition switch on a Ford F-150, check out this YouTube video: https://www.Youtube.com/watch?v=sHOLpaXiBPo. As your Ford F-150 ages, you may encounter battery issues such as leaks that can cause fluid spillage. This could lead to a drained battery that needs recharging or replacement. Rapid battery drainage may occur, requiring prompt fixing. A cracked battery case may also develop, necessitating complete replacement. Over time, the battery will become less effective and need to be replaced every 50,000 to 60,000 miles. While this maintenance can be costly, it's essential to invest in keeping your car operational.
Disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal. Turn the key to the "on" position. Slide a paperclip into the slot below the ignition switch. Swap out the old ignition switch with the new one using the key to make sure it's inserted correctly, and then reattach the battery terminal.
