Asked by Karmah101 Feb 12, 2022 at 01:54 PM about the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2006 Chevy Trailblazer and the key doesn't lock or unlock the door.  
The key fob works - just not the key.  What's going on?

There's a rod inside the door that goes from the lock to the latch. The rod is held in place by plastic clips. Sometimes the clips break and the rod falls off inside the door. Sounds like that's what's happened. Hope that helps! Jim

Thanks Jim! I'm sure that's what happened. It moves freely when I turn the key. I'll call my mechanic.
