Locks: Description and Operation

Key Coding Construction

Key Usage and Identification

Key is used for ignition, door and trunk lock cylinder. Keys are cut on both edges to make them reversible.

Key identification is obtained from six character key code stamped on key code tag. Using this key code, key code cutting combination can be determined from a code list (available to owners of key cutting equipment from suppliers).

If key codes are not available from records or tags, key code can be obtained from the right hand door lock cylinder (if lock has not been replaced). Lock cylinders supplied by the factory as service parts are unmarked.

If original key is available, key code cutting combination can be determined by laying key.
