It is the component where you insert the key to start the vehicle, and it includes tumblers that match a specific key code. This part is commonly replaced when keys are lost, the ignition lock becomes worn or difficult to turn, or for security upgrades. The cylinder comes with two double-sided cut keys and is designed for Kenworth trucks with 7-tumbler lock systems.
