Rear tailgate lock not working

Post by JimmyT25 »

Hello

I have an issue with the lock on the tailgate of my van, basically it won't work with the key that I have for all the other locks, is there a way I can make it work with my key, if so how?

You need to remove lock, barrel, and with key in it, file away whatever is sticking up when the little brass 'fillets' (for want of a better word) are pushed fully home. Never actually removed a rear lock barrel but I imagine its similar to other T25 door ones.
