I can't get my boot to lock, key turns in the lock but doesn't do anything.
Is there anything that would cause this that would be an easy fix or would a new lock be in order?

HI Pink the barrel in the handle is bust there is a little nipple on the end
of barrel this probably has broken in use as is not made that strong J.D

I had this, the lock housing has snapped due to the housing being a very thin die cast. i managed to fix mine but we don't know how damaged your lock is. this type of damage usually is the result of an attempted break in.

Thanks for the sensible answers Think I'll see if I can get a new mechanism

Steve (slyoldfox) is selling a set on ebay, although you don't really need a set, an individual boot lock can be very hard to find. (thats why i rebuilt mine)

Damn. I let the scrap man take my shell away the other day which had a complete chrome boot lock and key attached to it!

I think I might have another chromey in the garage though. Ill get back to you on that.
