james750 Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 which key fits in the glove box, ignition or door? i tried both but none seem to work. maybe the truck went through an ignition lock cyl b4 i bought it, in that case it would be on its 4th. :eek:
offroader461 Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 door key..mine is a PITA and it takes some jiggling to get it to turn :roll:
DirtyComanche Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 I never realized it was the door key. I just assumed it was an extra key (like my fuel cap key) that always got lost somewhere along the list of owners.
james750 Posted July 23, 2008 Author Posted July 23, 2008 door key..mine is a PITA and it takes some jiggling to get it to turn :roll: ok, got the key to work. it took me some jiggling as well to make it work... but i put some dry powder graphite lubricant in and now it turns smooth. that seems to be the secret for all of stiff lock cylinders
james750 Posted July 23, 2008 Author Posted July 23, 2008 next question regarding this problem... when i bought the truck the female side of the latch was unscrewed and laying in the floor of the glovebox. i looked at the male side and one of the posts that engages to latch shut is stuck in the closed position. whats the first step in fixing? TIA
james750 Posted July 24, 2008 Author Posted July 24, 2008 ok, got the whole set out, next i want to look at removing the lock cyl and diagnosing the problem...
