Reset gates of Baggage Door key cylinder?
Is there any way to reset the small brass "gates" in these cam-type key cylinders for the baggage door locks on my 1961 Tradewind. (See pics of cylinders and the gates) I'm at a loss if these are salvageable?Click image for larger version Name: ImageUploadedByAirstream Forums1433285553.087794.jpg Views: 97 Size: 81.5 KB ID: 239854

And yes I did pull the keys out before I installed it in the main housing.

Take the whole thing to a locksmith. They may even be able to key it to match another of your trailer keys.
