Generic Ignition and Door Lock Cylinder Kit for Ford E150/E250/E350 1997-2020 — 5-piece set, 2 keys

This kit is a direct-fit ignition switch lock cylinder and four door lock cylinders with two keys, made to replace worn locks on 1997–2020 Ford Econoline vans and compatible models.

If your Ford E150, E250 or E350 van has a failing ignition cylinder or sticky door locks, this replacement kit offers a full set of mechanical lock components designed to match original equipment dimensions. The package provides a complete lock solution — ignition cylinder, front and rear door cylinders and two blank keys — intended to save on time and repair expense by restoring factory-like fit and function.

Which Ford models and years will this lock set fit?

This kit is engineered for the Ford Econoline family from 1997 through 2020, including E150, E250 and E350 vans. It also shares compatibility with vehicles that used the LC6177 ignition cylinder and cross-references part numbers like 703369 and 597638, and similar Ford truck applications noted for the LC6177 design.

• Primary fit: Ford E150, E250, E350 Econoline vans (1997–2020)
• Cross-compatible: LC6177- type ignition fits and related Ford models that used those cylinders
• Reference numbers included: 703369 and 597638 match-up guidance

What exactly comes in the package and what will I need to do?

The kit contains one ignition lock cylinder, two front door lock cylinders, one side door lock cylinder, one rear door lock cylinder and two uncut keys. Installation generally replaces the old lock cores with these new units — basic hand tools are typically all that’s required, and the steps mirror the factory removal and refit of each cylinder.

• Included: 1 ignition cylinder, 2 front door cylinders, 1 side door cylinder, 1 rear door cylinder, 2 keys
• Installation: remove old cores, insert new cylinders, reassemble door panels and ignition bezel
• Tools: screwdriver set, possibly small pliers and trim tools for door panels

Does this kit include transponder keys or will I need programming?

The supplied keys are standard mechanical blanks and do not include a transponder chip. If your van requires a transponder (chip) key to start, these keys must be cut and then either fitted with a programmed chip or replaced with a dealer/programmed transponder key to enable ignition immobilizer functionality.

• Keys included are non-transponder blanks for mechanical lock use
• If vehicle has immobilizer, obtain a programmed transponder separately
• Local locksmiths can duplicate blades and program chips when needed

How durable and accurate is the replacement compared to the original parts?

The cylinders are built to an OE-style design using durable metal and precision construction to match original dimensions. They’re made to resist wear and impact from regular use and restore reliable action for both ignition and door locking functions.

• OE-style shape and mounting points for straightforward replacement
• Metal construction for wear resistance and long service life
• Manufactured tolerances intended to align with factory mechanisms

Who is this for: This kit is ideal for owners, fleet managers or mechanics servicing Ford Econoline vans (E150/E250/E350) built between 1997 and 2020 who need a full mechanical lock refresh. It suits situations where ignition or door cylinders are worn, seized, or damaged and a cost-effective, direct-fit replacement is preferred. Note: buyers who require immobilizer-enabled starting must arrange for transponder programming separately.
