Hi All,

Could someone please pm or E-mail [email protected] the instuctions on how to remove the detachable tow bar, I've left it on a bit too long and the key won't turn, nothing is broken yet it is just seized so I don't want to buy a new one for the sake of some instructions, I can probably free this up once I've got it off.

Thanks
Paul

Hi paul
I had a similar issue - just LOADS of wd40 in the key hole over a couple of days did the trick for me

Thanks Frenchy Thumbs Up ,

I did this for about an hour or so, wd and gentle manipulation did the trick Mr. Green
AS i said I didn't want the hastle of getting a new lock for the sake of a bit of advice.
