Was just thinking that you could spray some cleaner like wd40 or brake cleaner into the barrel and it should free it up. But as you say It may well be fooked! lol

I will give it a go with some WD, but i`ve had a prod around inside and may have made it worse:pinch: cheerz anyway dude

The boot lock barrel has anti tamper tumbler built in, it activates if a key other than the correct one is inserted and locks the barrel, unfortunately as the keys start to wear it sometimes drops down with the correct key!

 

But no need to replace, just disassemble the barrel and reset the first keyway closest to the key entry end of the barrel, and all will be working again.

 

The job is a bit fiddley but as it is a free repair its worth having a go.
