Most shops I know send the cylinder to a locksmith . Doing it yourself will save time and money. Nice video Joe.

nice work! just for the record, those "tumblers" are actually wafers! This is a wafer tumbler lock as opposed to a pin tumbler lock. If you get messed up, you can simply use a trial and error approach starting at the front of the cylinder, inserting the key and seeing if that wafer sits at the shear line (ie flush with the top/bottom of the cylinder). No need to panic :)
@jonwright6292 жыл бұрын
The trial and error was what I did the first time I had to replace my ignition cylinder. Pain in the ass, but a lot better than having it towed to the dealership so they could reprogram my PATS keys. Unfortunately, some low life tried to steal her again last night, so I'll be re-'wafering' a new cylinder this afternoon.

So you don’t need the old cylinder, just trial and error one by one?

Not so simple Joe! I have the little tool to disengage the tumbler assembly from the lock cylinder, but it will not release and I can't get it out of the back of the lock cylinder. 2013 F-150. Followed the directions and your steps to release, but can't get it to. Can't figure out why? Seems simple enough, but I can't get it to work. Any suggestions?

Hey there what would I search to find the kit with all the necessary pins to recode my door locks on my 93 Dodge Dakota. Been trying to find a rekey kit or recoding kit but there's simply too much out there. I am no mechanic but have some decent knowledge on how to recode it but I'm having trouble finding a set of oem pins for my door lock cylinders. I live in Calgary, AB, Canada. Thanks so much! Any help will be greatly appreciated
