Re: linda

if you want to get the key out, you could try putting a small dab of super glue on the end of a thin wooden/plastic stick (like a cocktail stick) and try fishing the key out like that. Just be careful you don't superglue your lock because thats a bad thing to do!

Thanks Alex. I have allready tried that. The problem is that the key is not in the off position. It needs a nother click.
