What are the features and assembly processes of the Ignition Lock Cylinder on Cadillac Seville?

Both sides of vehicle keys are reversible because master key and valet key contain transponders that communicate with the theft deterrent system. These keys include 10 defined cut positions spread across five depth levels. Each key possesses distinct functions within the vehicle; the master key unlocks all doors and starts the engine while the valet key controls front door locking and ignition while the emergency key functions without a transponder to open doors and access rear compartment and storage compartments. The key code system derives from the five-digit numbers printed on key tags of original master and valet keys to establish corresponding cut combinations with tumblers. Keys undergo key cutting first requiring a blank key to achieve correct depth configuration matching the tumbler sequence and then requiring mechanical lock cylinder operational inspection tests. Seven out of ten cut positions within the Ignition Lock Cylinder are used specifically from position 3 through position 9 at staggered tumbler positions. The assembly technique requires tumbler springs to enter spring wells before loading tumblers depending on key-cut positions ensuring they match the cylinder's face and using lubrication on tumbler surfaces then installing the cylinder into the housing while aligning the retaining bar. During assembly the Door Lock cylinder needs to maintain tumbler position stability before operators install the lock pawl and e-clip. The manufacture of the rear compartment lid lock cylinder happens using seven cut positions arranged as (3-9) and the production steps include the same actions for assembly together with lubrication steps. A four-cutter (7-10) ip storage compartment lock cylinder ships with an already-installed retainer tumbler. Assembly requires detailed attention to achieve correct tumbler loading together with operational efficiency and the installation of components which includes springs and covers.
