lock and seat problems
Update:
I tried wd-40, no luck. So I took apart the door and was trying to pull the lock out completely, and was close except for the one rod that goes from the door handle. I was able to see the pins though, and it looked like the last few were jammed...
So now I'm thinking of changing all the locks, is it possible to change it with just regular toyota locks? Anything less expensive?
I made a post before pointing out the problems I had wit my locks (the key only worked on the ignition). Well, my mom found another key, and this one works on the ignition, glove box, trunk, and sometimes on the passenger door (it doesn't twist all the way though). I was wondering what it could be with the doors. I asked a locksmith, and he told me to try and lube it with wd-40, should I spray it in the keyhole or dismantle the door?
Also, the power locks don't work for any of the doors, I hear the clicky sound, but the locks don't move, what do I need to check out?
Last but not least, the seat control settings doesn't work, I can adjust the seat, but I can't set the settings to the buttons, how do I take out the seat, or just the adjuster?
I have more problems, but these are the main ones, and I'd appreciate your help.

thanks for the reply... but I'm afraid this is no longer a problem, seeing as how that car was hit the other day... its repairable though, and I'm pretty sure they'll take care of that in the process.
weird how bad things can be good at the same time?
