NOTE:
When any new lock cylinder is installed, the luggage compartment lid lock cylinder, the driver door lock cylinder and ignition lock cylinders should be installed as a set. This eliminates carrying an extra key which will fit only one lock. If a new key is used, the new key code number is stamped on a metal tag attached to the key.
NOTE:
Individual lock cylinders are repaired by discarding the inoperative cylinder and building a new lock cylinder using the appropriate lock repair package. The lock repair package includes a detailed instruction sheet to build the new lock cylinder to the current key code of the vehicle.
