For this, we will go over the most frequent problems and what can be the potential solutions to this concern.
The door lock on my Seat 850 is completely locked
You manage to insert your key entirely in the lock of the Seat 850, however impossible to rotate . In this situation, a very simple check must be made. If it is the case on all your locks, it is that the concern comes from the key, naturally. If, however, this is only the case on one of the doors, it is of course the lock that blocks. In this case, the first thing to do is to insert WD40. This anti-seize is the most used in mechanics. Often it solves more problems than you might think. It is also likely that an element has been inserted in the lock and prevents its operation. In this situation, a locksmith will repair it for you. Last solution, replace the lock…
The key no longer fits fully in the door of the Seat 850
The concern can arise from several reasons. The first is that your key is curved. If that's right, you will have trouble opening all the doors of your Seat 850. You can also try to straighten it gently. Otherwise, it is conceivable that the lock is just dirty. In this case, you need to oil the lock or insert anti-seize like WD40. By dint of playing the key without forcing too much, the lock should end up working. It is practically unthinkable that a resistant element be introduced into the lock, unless an individual has tried to force it.

One of the first things to do is to enter through another door and try to open it from the inside. If there too nothing happens, then the lock of your Seat 850 is undeniably in poor condition. You can still put an anti-seize inside the mechanism, but honestly there is little likelihood that it will work. Unfortunately, you have only one solution, call your locksmith.
