Can't open 2 doors with key
Posted: 07 Sep 2020, 21:47
Hi All,
When we bought our camper, a couple of months ago, we were told that one of the keys opened the driver and boot doors, and the other opened the passenger and sliding doors.
This was not correct. Both of the keys we got were identical. They open the driver and boot doors, and work in the ignition. We don't have any keys to open/lock the passenger and sliding doors. We have to open those internally, once the drivers door is open.
I'm not sure if these locks have just seized up (they won't turn at all, and I've tried lots of WD40), or if they do work with another key for some reason.
Locking and unlocking the van, in its current state, is a pain So, I'd love to get the locks fixed on the passenger and sliding doors if possible.
How can I go about this?
Can I get those 2 locks replaced? If possible, I'd obviously like them to work with the same key as the rest of the van.
Or, will I need to have 2 different keys, unless I replace ALL of the locks (and ignition) in the van?
Are these locks easy to find (where) and fit (how)?
You can probably guess that I'm new to all of this, so would love some pointers.
Thanks,
Damian
