Welcome to Black Friday. Up to meet w the swim group and the ignition in my car won’t turn.
Tried rocking the steering wheel. Tried a spare key.
Nope. Never had a problem w it before.
So INGO who in Avon area should I call? Wife can take me to work. Someone will be home.
Other things to try?
Don't do this. Dry lubes only in locks.I agree make sure ur steering wheel is not under pressure and shoot some wd40 into the cylinder
Don't do this. Dry lubes only in locks.
"wet" lubes attract dust and dirt and will only make the problem of stuck pins worse in the long run. They do make spray dry lubes for locks though. All the "wet" stuff in dry sprays evaporates totally leaving only dry lubes behind.
EDIT: as I hit submit I realized there will be an INGO Nazi along any time to tell me that they dont "attract" anything. Which is technically correct. It just allows the stuff that does get in there to stick and not come back out, causing long term gumming up of the works as more and more particles stay behind stuck to the wet lube.
Well I feel dumb. I know WD-40 is water displacement formula 40. Should have used my Teflon spray.
I have a feeling the lock will need to be pulled and rebuilt. Can clean it out then.
