What to Do When the Mechanical Lock Can't Open the Car Door?
1 Answers
Reasons and solutions for the mechanical lock not opening the car door are as follows: 1. The car's central locking system is in an electronically locked state. You need to wait for one to two hours for the lock to be released before attempting to unlock it again. 2. If the door lock cylinder is stuck due to prolonged disuse and cannot be turned, in an emergency, you may resort to forceful methods like breaking the window to open the door. 3. You can contact a 4S shop for repairs. Detailed information about the mechanical lock not opening the car door is as follows: 1. If the mechanical key cannot turn to open the door, it may be due to incorrect operation, a faulty lock cylinder, or a problem with the mechanical key. The reason could be rust inside the lock cylinder. You can try injecting some engine oil into the lock cylinder to lubricate it, then attempt to open it. If this fails, the only solution is to replace the lock cylinder. 2. If the car's door lock or internal mechanical device is damaged, there will be no resistance when using the mechanical key to open the door. This indicates internal disengagement, rendering the mechanical key useless. Some car models enter an anti-theft locked state after locking, not only locking the engine but also the central control system, making the mechanical key ineffective. 3. The car's central locking door structure uses a mechanical latch to secure the door. If the door is not locked, you can simply use the external door handle to open it. Conversely, if the car has an internal unlock button, you need to enter the car and start the vehicle to unlock it. In such configurations, if the door cannot be opened, you may have to break the car window to enter, resulting in significant damage. This method is not recommended.
