Compatible Models

We do our best to list all compatible models. Although this may be the part you need, your exact model may not appear below.

Compatible equipment / model
  • Nissan D21 Pickup 1986-1989 - matching ignition lock configuration
  • Nissan Pathfinder manual transmission 1990-1996 - matching ignition lock configuration

Product Overview

A key that jams, spins without engaging, pulls out in the run position, or breaks in a worn cylinder can leave an older Nissan stranded even when the electrical starting system is healthy. This lock cylinder renews the mechanical key interface for the listed D21 and Pathfinder configurations.

The listing is for manual-transmission fitment where stated. Ignition electrical switches, steering-lock housings, automatic-transmission interlocks, and door cylinders can differ. Compare the cylinder body, retaining tab, connector or switch interface, key positions, and the original number before removing the steering-column trim.

Key Features & Performance

  • Mechanical ignition lock cylinder
  • Includes matching keys
  • Restores positive key rotation after cylinder wear
  • Application-specific retaining and switch interface
  • Manual-transmission Pathfinder configuration must be confirmed

Replaces Part Numbers

  • 48700-01G25
  • 4870001G25
  • US681
  • UB3976290

Common Uses

  • Replacing a key cylinder that will not turn
  • Repairing a lock that spins freely without moving the switch
  • Replacing a damaged cylinder after a broken key or theft attempt
  • Renewing badly worn keys and tumblers together

  • Product Type: Ignition Lock Cylinder and Key Set
  • Location: Steering column ignition
  • Transmission Note: Manual transmission where listed

Installation & Fitment

  • Disconnect the battery and follow the steering-column airbag precautions for the vehicle
  • Confirm the fault is mechanical and not the separate electrical ignition switch
  • Compare cylinder length, retaining tab, and rear drive interface
  • Keep the steering-lock mechanism aligned during removal and installation

Compatibility Notice

Northline Parts does its best to list all known compatible models, but the correct part may fit an application not shown.

Model, production date, serial number, engine or equipment configuration, installed options, and previous repairs can affect fitment. Compare the original part, identifying numbers, dimensions, connections, and mounting details before purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can this fix an engine that cranks but will not start? A: Usually not. This addresses the mechanical key cylinder; fuel, ignition, immobilizer, and engine controls cause crank-no-start problems.

Q: Does it include new keys? A: Yes. Matching keys are included with the replacement cylinder.

Q: Will it fit an automatic-transmission Pathfinder? A: The listing identifies manual-transmission Pathfinder fitment. Do not assume automatic interlock compatibility.

Q: Is the electrical ignition switch included? A: Only the parts shown with the lock-cylinder set are included; the rear electrical switch may be a separate component.
