Function And Common Failure Modes
Lock units secure vehicle access points and the ignition system. Common causes of failure include mechanical wear of tumblers and linkages, corrosion from moisture ingress, broken plastic components in the actuator or latch assembly, and key barrel wear. Symptoms often include difficulty turning the key, intermittent locking/unlocking, or a complete inability to lock or unlock the door or fuel flap.
Replacement Guide
Replacement typically requires removal of the interior door trim to access the lock mechanism, disconnecting actuator linkages, and unbolting the lock assembly. For the ignition switch, disconnect the battery, remove steering column covers and extract the ignition barrel following vehicle-specific procedures. After fitment, ensure mechanical linkages are correctly adjusted and electrical connections (if present) are secure. If unsure, consult a service manual or a professional technician.
Installation Frequency And Maintenance
There is no fixed replacement interval; service life depends on usage and exposure to the elements. Regular lubrication of mechanical linkages and inspecting seals around door and fuel flap areas can extend service life. Replace the set if keys show excessive wear or if locking operation becomes unreliable.
