KEYS AND LOCKS

Four keys (two hexagonal head and two round head) are

provided with each vehicle. The hexagonal-head key

operates the ignition switch and front door locks. The
round-head key operates the locks for the glove box and

rear compartment lid.

' Lock cylinders (except trunk) are furnished for service

uncoded, this necessitates the coding of these replace-

ment lock cylinders.

NOTE: In service, the trunk and glove box

lock cylinders are provided together with the

trunk lock cylinder coded and the glove box

cylinder uncoded.

The side bar type lock (fig. 18) is used for the ignition,

front doors and trunk. The glove box lock is of the wafer

CHEVROLET CHASSIS SERVICE MANUAL

GENERAL INFORMATION

Once the code number of the lock is obtained look up

this number in a key cutting book.

All side bar locks (except trunk) furnished to the field

by the Parts' Department are uncoded, that is, they are

furnished without tumblers, springs or spring retainers,

these parts are serviced separately. The tumblers come

in five different depths, indicated by numbers.

The side bar locks have six tumbler positions, and in

looking up the cutting code, the following may be used as

an example. After key code number is determined, either

from key or from number stamped on lock cylinder refer

to your code book and record the key cutting information

as follows:

Key of Lock

Code Number

Key Cutting

Code Numerical

545431

123456

NOTE:
Key blanks used for ignition and door

locks are stamped with an "A" while rear com-

partment and glove box blanks are stamped with

a "B".

The number that is written above the cutting or tumbler

position indicates each different tumbler which is to be

dropped into each tumbier slot of the lock.

In cases where a code book is not available, the dia-

gram shown on Figure 19 may be used to determine the

tumblers required to assemble an uncoded lock cylinder.

1.
Lay the key on the diagram (fig. 19) with bottom of

key flush with edge of the drawing, head and point

carefully lined up.

2.
Read the code in numbers 12345 from the head of the

key to the end from positions 1 to 6 inclusive. As

each depth is determined write that number in the

blank space provided above the position numbers

(1-2-3-4-5-6).

3.
With key properly lined up on diagram, all cuts that

show in the first section are marked
"1"
J

4.
Cuts that fall in the first black section, mark "2".

5. Cuts that fall in the first white section, mark "3".

6. Cuts that fall in second black section, mark "4".

7. Cuts that fall in the second white section, mark "5".

After the numbers have been determined and written

above the cutting positions the lock cylinder should be

assembled as follows.

Lock Cylinder Assembly—Refer to Figure 20

1.
Hold cylinder with head of cylinder away and starting

•... at the head of the cylinder, insert the tumblers in
their proper slots in the order called for by the

code, ribbed side toward you and long point down.

2.
After all tumblers are in place, check for correct-

ness with the code. Then press tumblers down with

one finger.

3.
Insert one tumbler spring in the space provided

above each tumbler.

CAUTION: If the springs are tangled, do not

pull them apart—unscrew them.

4.
Reverse the lock cylinder so that the head of the

cylinder is now toward you. Insert the spring re-

tainer so that one of its six prongs enters into each

of the springs and the two large end prongs slide into

the slots at either end of the cylinder. Press the

retainer down with one finger.

5. To check, insert proper key and if tumblers are in-

stalled properly the side bar will be allowed to drop

down. If bar does not drop down, remove the key,

spring retainer, springs and tumblers and reas-

semble correctly.

NOTE:
If the tumblers have not been assembled

correctly and not according to the code, the

tumblers can be removed from the cylinder by

holding it with the tumbler slots down, pulling

the side bar out with the fingers and jarring the

cylinder to shake the tumblers out. This pro-

cedure is necessary because after the tumblers

have been pressed down into the cylinder they

are held in their slots by the cross bar.

6. If after checking it is found that the lock is as-

sembled properly, remove key and place cylinder in
