I Put some things away in the glove box Navi, and a few cds Locked it now I cant open it with the key any help on getting this thing open? I have my Registration and Insurance stuff Inside If I get pulled over Im screwed

 

why would you lock it?

so the exact key that you used to lock it, won open it?

 

Yes and I was in a bad part of Boston didn't want stuff stolen..

 

locksmith can pick that thing open in 2 secs flat
goin 2 cost u $100 or so that way

 

I was hoping there was a trick or something or if this happened to anyone else here

 

if there was a trick then the lock would be pretty pointless. it is designed to be secure.

 

Yeah a trick with the key not without, Like push up while turning, a missing step I'm not doing. It also seem as the key isnt going in all the way

 

you locked it...you tell us the trick you used to do that

 

this is all the manual says....

GLOVE BOX
When locking or unlocking the glove box, use
the master key.

 

They lock? guess I never tried or looked for that matter. Now going to have to go out to the garage and look

 

So if I locked it, I should be able to open it with the same key? And that is the red one not the black ones right?


Sometimes, I wait until I get in the car to lock it.

 

In mine, the key doesn't go in all the way and it works fine, so I don't think that's your problem. Jiggle it around a little bit, whatever key you used to lock it should open it (as mentioned above). Maybe it's slightly jammed, be a little bit more persuasive

 

the red is the valet key and will not work on trunk or glovebox...
the black key is the master...works for everything

 

I was only given 1 black chip key when buying the car , In fact I had the locksmith do it and it wasn't even Keyed to that key he took a tooth out and now it works...85 dollars EH stuff appends :-/

 

how did you lock it

 

im sure u did this.. try every key you have? one way and the other...

 

Crow bar.

 

pretty funny thread. Well hey if they steal your stuff leave a note or something asking how they did it.

 

Unless you're not trying to use the red vallet key to open it then it shoud open unless something went wrong with the lock at that instant when you locked it. I have locked mine before and never had a problem opening it.

 

Good idea! Leave the note inside the glove box so the thief is sure to see it

 

Thanks Sooner for clarifying the keys for me. You are one of the most knowledgeable people on the org. What aren't you mod?
