Re: Door locks question
One guy takes his coil wire out & puts it in his pocket.

Re: Door locks question
My deluxe delivery had a rear door T handle that wouldn't lock until I sprayed WD40 in the key hole Works fine now.

Re: Door locks question
Is that a coil in your pocket, or are you happy to see me?

Re: Door locks question
Ok. So an experienced car thief jumps in my unlock A! Working quickly and worrying about getting caught he looks for the ignition switch on the column so he can use his usual technique to get it started. THERE IS NONE! He spots the ignition switch in the dash, james his screwdriver in, and forces it to turn. NOTHING HAPPENS! Panic rising as time passes and he is sure he will soon be spotted, he tries to pry the dash off to get to the back of the switch. Henry's steel defeats him! Now more mad than worried he feverishly uses his screwdriver to remove the dash screws and gets to the back of the switch. THE IGNITION WIRES ARE IN AN ARMORED CABLE! "What kind of nightmare is this", he thinks as he, in frustration, rips the cable off of the back of the switch. Two wires are revealed!! Sensing victory he shorts the ignition wires. AND STILL NOTHING HAPPENS! "F this", he curses to himself. "I'm out of here", he mumbles as he makes his retreat.
It is much more likely your model A will be stolen (along with your truck!) while sitting on a trailer than parked in a parking lot. All this being said, I still lock my model A whenever I leave it. (Are you listening Hagerty?) And even if the thief found the starter button, still nothing would happen! I have a master switch you need to turn on in the engine compartment before anything can happen. Last edited by pgerhardt; 12-27-2015 at 09:32 PM. |
