United Kingdom 2004 Defender 90 Td5 HT Keswick Green
Door Lock Barrel
Any suggestions or tips would be much appreciated.

The driver's door lock on my 2004 TD5 has essentially stopped turning; I have attempted to degrease it in place and am waiting for that to have some effect. Am I wasting my time and would I be better simply to replace the lock [and perhaps the passenger and rear door cylinders too]?

Any recommendations on a replacement?

Quick fix, assuming it's not stuck too, is swap the barrel with the one in the passenger door.

I beleive if you have the small aluminium disc witht the lock number you can get barrels ordered to suit the existing key but would imagine these are not cheap.

When I had this issue with my 110 DCPU I bought a genuine parts set which included the ignition lock & 3 barrels (both front plus rear doors) & a pair of keys so that they were all the same. Can't remember the exact price but recall it being about £80? (You'll also need the anti tamper bolts for fitting the ignition lock plus some time/patience to get the old ones out...)

I'm sure if you do a search on here you'll be able to get the part number.

Passenger door lock on mine was seized when I bought the car...so I took the cheap option and bought a barrel and was going to live with an extra key....

In the style of a 70's Ford, my worn key works the new lock barrel without any problems.....tells you just how good the locks and key mechanisms are.....but works ok.

Might be worth a risk to get a new one and try it....
