emergency key from saturn
 
Hi folks,

I got my first saturn ION 1 a month ago, and the emergency key got mailed
last week.

the description says it can only open the door, but cannot start ignition; I
tried and it does not only open the door but also start ignition. is it
something wrong with the key, or the description?
Thanks for the help..

SJ

Description apparently. Just tried mine & it opens the door & starts
the car.

ION2 w/remote keyless entry system & passlock security system.

imho:

Thing that comes to mind is, you need the key replaced. Most likely
problem you will run into and have to use that key is locking your
real keys inside the car. A situtation your current emergency key
doesn't seem to help.

Go to a dealer and get the real emergency key ordered.

You misread.
Not only did it unlock his door, but it also fit and worked in the
ignition.

The packaging says it is only for the door locks becuase it is not a
very durable unit. Our local AAA (auto club) will make one out of
plastic while you wait to do the same thing.

It is not keyed any different for the doorlock or ignition (though I
can't say about the glove box, eg: a valet key) but it is not designed
to be twisted in the ignition to engage the starter. The stress of
turning on the accesory power mode is nothing compared to the start
position.

"does not only"

Opps, sorry for misreading, and thanks for the correction. It makes
sense now. I'm working on only a public school education. ;)
