Q: How to repair frozen Door Lock Cylinders due to cold weather on Buick Regal?
A: A heat gun (J 25070) should be used to heat the cylinder while avoiding paint damage during cold weather repair of frozen lock cylinders. A paper clip or similar implement should be used to hold the shutter door open while you direct compressed air through the cylinder with a blow gun attachment. A triggered shutdown of the shutter door will allow injection of the GM P/N 12346241 or Canadian P/N 10953474 multi-purpose lubricant or its equivalent. Repeated key insertion should be followed by key lubricant removal that remains on the key surface.
