Will a 2001 ignition switch fit the 2000 Chevy Tracker?

While they're very similar, a 2001 Chevy Tracker ignition switch is not guaranteed to fit a 2000 Chevy Tracker. There's a possibility of minor differences between model years, especially regarding the wiring harness connector or the physical dimensions of the switch itself.

Before purchasing, it's best to:

* Check the part numbers: Compare the part number of the 2001 ignition switch to the part number for your specific 2000 Tracker. You can find these numbers on the old switch and using online auto parts websites (like AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, etc.) by entering your vehicle's year, make, and model.

* Consult a parts store: Talk to a parts professional at an auto parts store. They can access their databases to confirm compatibility and even check for any known issues.

Don't rely solely on the year. Minor variations between models can lead to incompatibility, even within the same year range. Verifying the part numbers is the most reliable method.
