Remove the rear seat, find the vacuum lines that go into the trunk and mitivac each one until the lock unlocks. Onee locks and one unlocks.

240D (123) has been sitting in a building for almost a year. I tried to unlock the trunk, and the key won't go in all the way. It goes in 1/2-3/4 of the way. I tried spraying in the lock with PB, but that didn't seem to make any difference. I could insert a 3/32 drill rod all the way and I could insert a metal wiper reinforcement (about 1/8" wide) all the way.





First I thought an element was stuck, but later thought something was stuck inside the lock. After getting the drill rod and flat metal in, I am back to thinking something is stuck.





I figured that I would let the PB soak for a while and see what happens. The trunk was locked with the key when it was parked.





I don't think there is any way into the trunk without getting the lock to work, other than as a last resort, drilling out the lock. Is that correct?





Yes, it is the right key, it works in the ign and in the doors. Thanks
