OK, I'll preface this and say I'm a doofus.
The passenger side lock cylinder popped out of the door when I shut it. I mean, it fell to the outside and was hanging by the linkage. Oh - nice.
I opened the door panel and used epoxy putty, inside and out, to get the thing solidly back in place. I was careful not to get any on the linkage.
Now the cylinder is stuck in place with epoxy, inside and out, and the key won't turn in the lock. the power lock does work, though.
Any thoughts? I want to get this thing back to looking clean & working properly. I don't know what the hell I was thinking aside from "This will be cheap!". Any solvents that will strip epoxy? Any idea why the power locks work but not the keys?
