There is a sliding rack inside there that connects to the electrical ignition switch and they break a lot. It is a small part but a major job to replace.

Dude.....That is such a bad idea......You're gonna wind up spiking your PCM.....

Pull a fuse, trip the inertia switch, take the vacuum line of the brk booster, anything but pulling a battery cable off while the car is running....
