Door locks


Recommended Posts

Ok new problem here and can't find the answer by searching. When I lock my driver or passenger side doors they will not unlock from the outside with the key. I can hear the lock turning but it will not unlock. I have to go inside and pull the wire bar to get it to open. I there is no problem with the doors when they are unlock. Also I can lock the doors outside of the truck with the key, but it will not unlock from the outside. Is there a rebuild kit that I can buy?

Ok I'll try the pb blaster. Also I have a extra set of door locks that I snagged off a 88 xj. I wanted a project but man this is turning into more then I wanted, but thanks for the help

Haha. I have broken ignition, door locks, rear end went out, front hub bearings were out, exhaust manifold, and more since I've had mine.

 

My resr window fell out the other day on the highway because the previous owner didn't install it properly.

 

I have a long ways to go, it's worth it. The little things are the ones that bug you!

Well it seems that by spraying PB blaster then carb cleaner to get all the hunk off and following up with WD-40 makes the door work correctly. Ran out of time today and will finish up the other door. It's all the old PO stuff that makes me wonder why a person thought that was a bright ideal to do.
