Ignition key won't turn

**box_type** · September 13th, 2017 08:39 AM

Nagpark ako sa garahe sa office then may isang kotse umalis so nagdecide ako lumipat sa pwestong inalisan nya, ang problema nung sinaksak ko na ulit yung susi ko sa susian ayaw nang umikot ng susi kahit galaw galawin ko yung manibela para sana ma-unlock man lang yung manibela. Eto nagtatanong ako sa mga ka-officemate ko kung sino may WD40 bka sakali pag na-sprayan ng WD40 eh magmilagro, ano marerecommend nyo pwede kong magawa mga paps?

Press the key firmly hanggang maramdaman mong medyo lumubog then dahan dahan ikutin manibela

yup i did that already sir ayaw pa din, fortunately my office mate has wd40 and i sprayed a good amount inside the keyhole and it turned smoothly, problem solved! baka nanigas na mga dumi't alikabok sa loob, thanks for the advice sir :-)

Maybe one of the key tumbler pins got stuck.

How old is the vehicle?

its a corolla 1990 sir, quite old na din, you may be right tumbler pins probably got stuck because of the acuumulated dust or debris or whatever, but everything's fine now... i sprayed the keyhole with wd40, thanks anyway!

instead of wd40, try contact cleaner. "it leaves no residue" that can harden again in the future.
(sounds like an ad, but i believe it.)

Contact cleaner will remove whatever lubrication is left in the assembly.

It's better to use silicone spray. It doesn't leave a sticky residue and it naturally repels dirt.
