Bought a used EBR and am unable to unlock the passenger seat. The key can only go in about 1/3rd the way. Anyone have experience with fixing this issue?

Yes.... wiggle the key. Use WD-40.

Once you get it..... you get it.

The lock seemed permanently stuck. A locksmith verified stuck tumblers. He made a thicker key that works.

Usually if I twist the key to the left before turning right, it seems to help. They do suck though.
