How to replace ignition lock with no keys on a 1988 Ford F250

[@PocketWomen]

Cool demonstration. Good to know the trick with the retaining pin. Picked that lock so fast with that rake, Cheers

[@feelvivek]

was that an OBS or a bullnose ? I kept raking with no results on a Bullnose (1980-86), lol

I didn't know those would pick, awesome! I have that same pick set. Also learned from this how to tell side bar. Thank you

Can you send a link where you purchased those lock picking tools?

Goso lockpick set. I’ll try to find a link

Just a cheap double sided rake-

Hello does this work on a 1980-86 ignition key ?

[@thewhittierlocksmith121]

It should- if the ignition hole is centered

[@feelvivek]

@@thewhittierlocksmith121 thanks I tried for a while. Do some key pattens just not rake ? Also does it get harder with age, if the lock pins are worn down and slip too freely ?

[@thewhittierlocksmith121]

@@feelvivek yea for sure, use lube like houdini or tri flow- some of these locks are older than i am and there's tons of old grease, gunk and dirt. Ignition may even be bad if it doesn't work. Just try a few different rakes, picks and or jiggler keys

[@thewhittierlocksmith121]

@@feelvivek to answer your question, sorry for late response. Yes some patterns may not work, may need to try different combos of rake shapes

Where do I get that pick tool?

@@HDavidMahan most locksmith distributors have them or Amazon may have them. It’s a double sided pick
