I had a ignition lock with the A**** number and took it to a lock shop and they looked it up on their cards and made me a key right away. Try a lock shop and you should have success.

Hello, Had local Locksmith make two keys for this outside door lock bit of trouble installing it until I put a wire though lock and into shaft end which help line the shaft up when pushing lock into door. Lock now works as it should.

You were lucky they had a blank.

Synchro909,

Didn't seem to be a problem asked how many keys I wanted.
Cheers Graeme

Agreed. I had a key and just wanted a duplicate made so I would have a spare. Our best lock shop in the area didn’t have a way to get a blank. They butchered a similar key blank and fudged it enough to make it work. It was an ugly mess.
