2004 Ford Explorer Sport Trac Door Lock Cylinder Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to install a new door lock cylinder and ensuring all locks match the same key on 2004 Ford Explorer Sport Trac?

  A: A door lock cylinder installation needs the replacement of the entire set containing both door lock cylinders and tailgate lock and ignition lock cylinder to prevent an unwanted supplementary key that only functions on one lock. A newly supplied key receives its key code number directly onto a metallic tag that secures to the key. Individual lock cylinder repair requires users to get rid of the broken cylinder and follow the lock repair package content to build a new cylinder according to the vehicle's current key code. The operation starts with front door trim panel removal followed by raising the window glass to its maximum height. After moving the watershield aside you need to disconnect the lock cylinder rod along with the retaining clip to extract the door lock cylinder. The installation procedure for the new cylinder follows an opposite direction of removal steps.
