Dang! Bad went to worse!!! - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

O.k. Since I have been having an alarm trouble, rather than locking with the power lock switch, I closed the door, inserted the door key and turned to lock.
Once locked, I tried to turn counterclockwise to remove the key but it won't budge.
With my limited knowledge;
1. tumbler got screwy and got jammed in lock position.
2. whatever it is that coordinates between cylinder lock to to lock/inlock mechanism is jammed.
3. Or alarm switch (one with wires coming out) behind the lock cylinder is jammed.

I guess I will have o pull the door panel to take a closer look and if all fails, order a pair of lock cylinders.

If anyone has any helpful info please post.
