Door lock problems

[masterlock]

Hey everyone,

So I just tried to lock my doors after not locking them in a few years and I’m having some issues. The key turns to the right and the door locks but when I turn it back to the left to remove the key it unlocks. I tried locking the doors from the inside and they only lock if the key is in the lock. I assume there is an issue with either how the locks were installed or the actual cylinder but it’s happening on both sides so I assume it was something I did years ago when I put the locks in. Help me out because I now need to lock up the truck at night and I cant.

Thanks

Can't really say, but if you remove the panels and watch them work maybe the problem will reveal itself?

RedBed is right, you'll need to take your door apart so you can see what's going on inside.
Check youtube for videos. That is were I have gotten most of the help I have needed for my truck. Just do a search for 80's Chevy Truck and then the issue. In your case door locks.
