Driverside door key hole does not unlock my car now but passenger door is fine, any idea on how I can fix this problem?
Honda 05 civic door driverside
Have a TECH take off the Door Trim.
Reconnect the lock mechanism.
You could do it yourself, but you would need the "snap fasteners" as they may be destroyed when prying off the trim.
Lubricate the lock with graphite made for the purpose. If that doesn't work, install a new handle/lock assembly and get it altered by a locksmith to fit your present key.
Take it to a locksmith & ask him…
This is what garage and mechanics are for, dope.
Get the barrel replaced by an auto-lock smith and "keyed alike" to your key.
Take the door card off, something may have fallen off
There are a number of possible issues.
If the key won't turn, graphite lubricant in the cylinder may help.
If the key turns, but the lock doesn't open, the most likely problem is that the lock mechanism has become disconnected from the lock cylinder. If that is the case, or if the graphite doesn't work, the door trim panel must be removed to make repairs inside the door. If the door can't be opened, that will required physical damage to the panel.
Remove the inner door panel and reattach the lock operating rod.
The arm inside the door may have fallen off. If the key doesn't turn.
if it does turn then its the mechanism inside the door and you have to take it apart and fix it
Clean the key real good and lubricate the driver side lock hole with special graphite lock dry lube. DO NOT use WD40 not any other aerosol spray type lubricant!
- Spare key doesn't work to unlock door electronically? I'm new to cars and my mom allowed me to borrow hers for the next two months while she's out of town. The thing is, she gave me her spare key, and the alarm won't work. The physical key unlocks the car, but I can't unlock/ lock it remotely. Any advice? The model is a Honda CRV
- How much to fix a 2003 Honda CRV driverside axle? I was driving last night when I hit a chem and now only the drivers side wheel is bent backwards so I think it may just be the part of the axle, nothing else in the car is damaged but how much money should I be looking into spending?

- Honda Civic, Did someone try to break in or is it just a worn key hole? I've had this car for 2 years and there has always been a piece of metal that covered the inside of the hole, but recently I felt the key was going in way to easy and I looked down and it was open. The ignition is the same exact way now O.o
