About this service

Car Door Lock Repair, explained

When a smart key battery dies, the hidden metal blade is your way in. If the door cylinder has not been used in years, it may be seized, especially near the coast. That is when people find out the lock does not work.

We replace the cylinder and recode it to your existing key, so one key still works the door and the ignition. The photo on this page is one of ours: a new Toyota door cylinder matched to the customer's key.

FAQ

Car Door Lock Repair questions

Why does my car door lock matter if I use the fob?

It is your backup when the fob battery dies. Checking it once a year saves you a lockout.

Will I need a new key?

Usually not. We recode the new cylinder to your existing key.

Can you fix the lock after a break-in?

Yes. We replace the damaged cylinder and check the linkage inside the door.
