Dorman Ignition Switch Actuator Pin 924-704 — Direct-Fit OE-Style Replacement for Chrysler, Dodge & Jeep

The Dorman 924-704 Ignition Switch Actuator Pin is a direct-fit replacement pin engineered to match the original actuator's dimensions and durability for specified Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Plymouth models.

This replacement actuator pin is designed to restore proper engagement between the ignition key cylinder and the vehicle's ignition switch. Manufactured and quality-tested by Dorman, the part aims to provide a reliable, long-lasting alternative to worn or damaged OE pins. Before ordering, verify fitment using your vehicle trim in the garage tool to confirm compatibility with your exact year and model.

How will this actuator pin resolve common ignition problems?

A failing actuator pin can cause difficulty turning the key, intermittent starting issues, or a loose-feeling ignition key. Replacing a worn or broken pin restores the mechanical connection that allows the cylinder to actuate the ignition switch reliably. This part replicates the stock geometry so engagement and key travel return to factory-like behavior.

• Re-establishes solid mechanical coupling between key cylinder and switch
• Eliminates slipping or binding during key rotation
• Designed to match original pin dimensions for proper engagement

Which vehicles and years is this Dorman 924-704 compatible with?

The 924-704 actuator pin fits a range of late-1990s and early-2000s Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Plymouth models. Compatibility varies by trim and production option, so checking the Confirmed Fit information in the garage tool is recommended before purchase. If an “i” icon appears, hover over it to read any specific fitment notes.

• Chrysler: Cirrus, Prowler, PT Cruiser, Sebring (select years)
• Dodge: Neon, Stratus models across multiple years
• Jeep: Cherokee, Grand Cherokee, Liberty, Wrangler (select years)
• Plymouth: Breeze, Neon, Prowler for listed production years

What should I expect during installation and how difficult is it?

Installation typically involves removing the steering column trim and, in some cases, the ignition cylinder to access the actuator pin. For someone with basic mechanical skills and common hand tools it is a straightforward repair; more complex steering lock or airbag-related disassembly may be best handled by a professional. Follow vehicle-specific service instructions and disconnect the battery when working near the airbag system.

• Basic hand tools usually needed: screwdrivers, socket set, trim tools
• Remove steering column covers to access the actuator pin area
• Refer to factory service manual for steps and torque specifications
