FORDification Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 I have a LaCrosse machine that needs a few parts, so I picked up a similar machine yesterday to use as a parts donor. The seller lost the key eight years ago and then just unplugged it and let it set in his shop. My key doesn't fit, so is there a way of getting this open without resorting to drilling it out?Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk ****Moderator Note: Duplicate thread deleted**** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southeast Treats Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 You may be able to drill a small hole in the side next to the lock and use a stiff wire to push the locking tab in.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
