ignition switch cylinder..cheap aftermarker problems?

[doug68hoss]

about every year i have the same problem..i have to put in a new cylinder into the ignition switch..it is because i have to wiggle the key in the cylinder to get like the heater and gauges and crap to come on..but the car runs fine..whats the deal here..? thanks

Is it that the key is bad or the switch unit.

The key only unlocks and turns the switch.
The connector buttons in the switch are what your jiggling at to get it
to work.

the keys have always been new with the pop out cylinder...
