your explanation is the best I found on youtube. Thanks so much for making this video.

Thanks for investing the time and effort to create this video mate. Somebody attempted to break into my R50 and damaged the locking mechanism. My key would just spin freely 360 degrees and do nothing. I found a replacement lock assembly with key on eBay for $70. I must admit this repair takes patience and is a knuckle buster working in very tight space with limited visibility, but watching this video gave me the confidence to try! It was a 3 hour job in all for me. I’m sure I could do it faster if I ever needed to do it again. I have total confidence in replacing the lock actuator assembly as well now (which I will likely be doing in a week or two, that will almost seem simple!) after having done the key lock mechanism.

Yes it always takes longer 1st time round. My advise, if you find yourself getting annoyed or frustrated while attempting repair. Step back for 5-10 minutes, have a coffee or tea break. Then go back to it, take your time & don't rush - WELL DONE mate :)

many thanks, very useful, especially identifying that specific screw near to the lock, inside the door as the one to be unscrewed (with the second easier to identify inside the door also) to be able to remove the for handle!!!

How do you replace/repair this yet have your key still work? Mine will lock, but spins freely when trying to unlock and the door actuator is also bad, which means the key fob won't unlock it either!!

eBay has them, both with and without a key. If you buy one without a key, a locksmith would be needed (or there is a KZitem video showing how) to transfer your old tumbler into a new housing, so your original key will still work. I just bought one with a key included, so I now use a different key to unlock the door manually and my original key with fob to start the car and remotely lock/unlock.

Worst design ever coming from a 15 year tradesmen thank god it's only my own. Just a reminder when trying to put handle cable back on you will have to loosen that Star key at 2:30 min in the video. Also reading comments online saying lock free turns or doesn't turn probably 90% of time it's the door lock cylinder itself and not the actuator as others state so don't go waisting money on a actuator. Also great video thank you.

believe you me, this job is a nightmare! there's a reason you don't see how it's reassembled...you have to be a magician to put it back together correctly! trust me, save up some coin and leave this repair to a professional.
