Information missing......

Why can't you unlock your car? When you put the key in and turn it to the unlock position what does it do? Is this the case on both driver and passenger side? Does your key fit right? Did you get a new key cut recently? What problem are you exactly having? You gave too little information for anyone to be able to answer your original post.

My bad!!! well i was never able to use my keys to open my car since i bought it 4 years ago and the guy that sold it to me never used they keys neither because the car had an aftermarket alarm system the locks and unlocks the car with a remote control, i guess since the key cylinders on the doors havents been used in years they just stucked, i have triep wd40, graphite podwer, white grease pretty much everything but taking it to a shop ( dont know who will be able to fix it lol) it wasnt a big deal before, when i turn on the car the doors lock automatically normal, when i turned the car off the never unlock, i can use the remote control also to lock and armed the alarm in my car, when i try to unlock it only disarmed the car but the locks dont work(it doesnt unlock it) oh and sometimes i leave the car unlock and after a while it locks it self out but this happens rarely, the key is not new its the orginal key that turns on the ignition. hope this info was useful help
