Tailgate Lock Cylinder: Service and Repair
TAILGATE LOCK CYLINDER
Removal and Installation
NOTE:
-
When a new lock cylinder is installed, the tailgate lock cylinder, door lock cylinders and the ignition lock cylinder should be installed as a set. This
eliminates carrying an extra key which fits only 1 lock. If a new key is to be used, the new key code is attached to a tag.
-
The individual door lock cylinders are repaired by discarding the inoperative lock cylinder and building a new lock cylinder using the appropriate
lock repair package. The lock repair package includes a detailed instruction sheet to build a new lock cylinder to the current key code of the
vehicle.
1. Remove the tailgate release handle.
2. Remove retaining clip and the tailgate lock cylinder.
3. To install, reverse the removal procedure.
