ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

    Lock Problem

    Hey guys, got a few questions for your expertise and all.

    Is it possible to open the locks on the cb7s (91-EX) without keys and without breaking the windows? Reason I ask is because I parked my car on the street in a sort of seedy neighborhood and came back with the locks up. And my glove trashed. Luckily nothing important was stolen. So, is it possible? Is there anything I can do about it?

    2nd question, my passenger door cannot be opened with a key lately. It used to work last week. What do you think is the cause?

    Thanks for your time.

    Yes, it is possible to pop the locks without keys. I'd say someone popped your passenger door and messed up the rods in the door. Pull the panel off, look for a disconnected or bent rod and fix it, then get an alarm.

      Yeah.

      The last time i locked my keys in my car, the guy just shoved a rod through my door weather stripping, and pulled the lock tab up...

        CB's are very easy to get into. My advice - Get an alarm


        Car Safety / General Servicing Checks --------Basic suspension checks

        A "Finished" project car is never finished until its been sold.

        If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.

          Thanks for the replies guys.

          I saw that the weather stripping around the door handle did have what looks like there was something shoved inside.

          Does the alarm make it harder to open? Or would it just be the sound that would deter the thieves?

            Shim-jim will do it, yep.

            I locked my keys in the car once and I pushed the window down with my hands till it dropped an inch and then could use a coat hanger on the lock.
