-->> T.G. Lambach 2. Try another, less worn key.
Try squirting some geaphite lock lubricant into the lock... you really need a new tumbler.
I think I may have to bend over on this one.....thanks anyway
Second to last resort is get a new key from dealer... all they need is your VIN number and proof of ownership. They have the key on record and they will carve out a new key. Sometime, keys are so worn out that the lock does not recognize it... or someone copied a worn key and makes the matter even worse.
Last resort is let dealer drill out the lock and replace it with original key code tumbler.
