It won't help to replace the lock. It is the rod that is bent. This happened to me, and straigtening out fixed it.

oh really!!!!! thanks so much man ...which rod is it? i know thats going to be difficult... thanks so much

I'm assuming he means the vertical rod that goes from Key barrel down to the latch mechanism.

ok..so just straighten that one out ..seems to simple to be true haha

by which rod i mean is it the one going to the key cylinder or the rod that goes up and out and becomes the lock that you see up top

One going to the key cylinder pretty sure.
Double check with ddgonzal though Haha

haha alright thanks man

hoipefully he replies ..

Mine was bent and couldn't lock/unlock with the key, or even push-knob.

Snap the rod off the lock cylinder, then see if it freely moves. If it does, the lock cylinder is not the problem.
