If you're trying to use an old/used door lock to replace one on your car, you can take it to an automotive locksmith. The chrome cap will have to be removed and replaced and the wafers in the lock will have to be matched to your existing key. You can then install the lock in your vehicle and your old key will fit all locks once more. The locksmith should also be able to provide you with a new lock retainer for installing the lock into the door. If it's not a door but the ignition, a good locksmith can hand-cut a new key to an old ignition lock, or if the ignition isn't installed yet, he can also set the lock up to fit your existing key. Use caution when replacing ignition locks. Incorrect installation can lead to dangerous conditions while driving. If your vehicle has airbags, leave it to a professional. Airbags can be dangerous and require special handling while working around.
An auto electrician would need to re-program the security system if that feature is available.
I just bought one and it does...however, when you shut the drivers side door it pops the unlock button and unlocks all the doors. I have to put the key in the door and turn it to lock all the doors at once.
If the window lock button is on (found on the drivers door) it will cause this to happen. Supposed to be a feature. it was not the lock botton.It was a bad ground on the relay ,power was getting to the relay ,but would not travel to back windows.Thanks For your input
I have the same problem and am also trying to solve it. Did you find out how to fix it?

Using your entry remote, lock and unlock the doors. This happened to me when I had the battery changed. Subaru tech told me to lock and unlock with the remote and it worked.
How do you repair a key lock on 2005 Honda Civic car? Thanks Nina Scott
AnswerIf the key will rotate in the door locks, but not in the ignition switch then the key is not going in all the way due to debris in there, the steering wheel lock is binding the ignition lock (fix by rocking wheel back and forth while turning key) or mechanical failure of lock internals.
