balli Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Change the battery first, its easy and cheap fix. If not then it looks like the lock cylinder is probably the problem. There's a little pot metal part that usually breaks in the mechanism. Take the cylinder out. Start by removing the black rubber plug on the doorjamb side of the door near the lock. then insert a 5mm. hex (allen) wrench into the slot angled toward the door handle. It's hard to see but pretty easy to find by feel. Unscrew the hex setscrew and the you can pull the cylinder assembly out of the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmeet Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 key is always connected to the alarm so be careful where you get the car fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
