Think you may have a faulty ignition switch??
If your Discovery Series II key getting stuck in the key barrel intermittently, you often times just need a new barrel tumbler assembly.
However, the original equipment barrels are not only hard to find these days, but are quite expensive!
This retrofit barrel kit is a fairly simple installation and is a fraction of the cost on the genuine (if you can find one!).
Bonus! This kit requires NO key programming!
Kit comes with replacement barrel and two new spare keys.

First off the ignition works great. A couple of things I ran into. On my vehicle the wire harness that plugs in under the dash was to wedged in and hard to get to so I left it plugged in and worked from inside of the vehicle. Just make sure you route harness wires out of the way so they do not interfere with the installation of casing. Also make sure the end of harness that attaches to the ignition is in the off position. PROBLEM. The screw holes on the harness that attaches to the ignition on my vehicle had brass inserts that the new screws got stuck in and I had to remove the inserts. Ignition works great and no programming.

The long, slender key with the narrowest double cut in the center has caused me the last exasperation, thanks to Atlantic British! I'd broken the tip off the key in the ignition three times, and three times I was able to find an old-school locksmith who could extract it and get me back on the road. Then I moved to Wyoming and when the key broke off yet again, the two locksmiths in the county tried and failed to extract it. I found this great, economical fix from Atlantic British, with a great instructional video for removal of the old ignition set and installation of the new one. They picked and shipped it overnight and I was back on the road less than 36 hours after ordering it! Thanks!
