Seized door lock cylinders
I have a 2001 Ranger with all manual controls. A couple of years ago the drivers door lock stopped working. The key goes in but will not turn. Now the passenger door is doing the same. The local Ford dealership quoted $500 to replace the locks over the phone. That is with the locks keyed to match the ignition key. I can buy a set of locks with their own key for $45 on line. I talked to a local body shop about changing them out and they suggest it might be the door lock mechanism and not the key cylinder. Money is very tight and I am not knowledgeable about disassembling the doors myself. Has anyone had this problem? Can you tell me what inside the door might have failed to stop the cylinder from turning?
