Frozen Door lock...Sorta
Gi'day
I have a 05TJ Rubie, This is it's first winter.
I previously had an 01TJ Sport.
Recently when the temp dipped below -21C
The door lock was giving me trouble.
The key and barrel wasn't frozen but I couldn't
unlock the door, it would turn but again it wouldn't
unlock. Same for the inside button. I could push it
but it wouldn't unlock.
Anyone have any similar experience with this?
MY 01TJ Sport never did this.
It seems something inside the door is wrong.
I'm unsure how the door lock mechanism works
or how it looks inside the door.

Re: Frozen Door lock...Sorta
Did you try the passenger door lock? Do you have manual locks? I'm guessing
from the temp. reading you gave, you are not in the US. Where are you from?
It should be under warranty.

Re: Frozen Door lock...Sorta
Why, "The Great White North" of coarse
-21C translates to approximately -6F
With a wind it's fricken cold, even for me, an avid snowmobiler
:-)
The passenger door is fine. I'm curios what do they use to lock/ulock
from the button and key? Plastic?
