Product Description
This ignition switch and fuel cap set comes with one key, designed primarily for Citroën C4 but also compatible with a range of other Citroën and Peugeot vehicles. It is an essential replacement part for securing your vehicle’s ignition system and fuel tank, contributing to vehicle security and proper operation.
The ignition switch controls the electrical system start-up, allowing power to the engine and accessories. The fuel cap seals the fuel tank, preventing fuel evaporation and contamination. Both parts are prone to wear over time due to frequent use and exposure to environmental conditions.
Common reasons for replacement include difficulty turning the ignition key, intermittent electrical contact, or fuel cap seal damage resulting in fuel vapor leaks or warning lights. Proper replacement ensures vehicle safety and functionality.
Installation involves removing the old ignition switch and fuel cap, generally accessible through the steering column for the ignition switch and external access for the fuel cap. It is recommended to handle with care to avoid damage to surrounding components and programming the key if necessary, depending on vehicle security systems.
