    Thanks, I have a 4-digit combo lock of this style that was trapped with the shackle open (not closed) after someone found the lock open and messed up my combination. I was unsuccessful recovering the combination with the other popular methods posted online. Thanks to this method (with a paper clip and sewing needle), I was able to recover the lock and subsequently re-set it with my original combination.

    This might be useful:
    - I used a niddle in my own case
    - hold tightly the niddle on a point
    - turn clockwise the buttons after another, untill you can no longer turn them again.
    - remove gently the niddle
    - verify the 3 numbers are well aligned with the red line on the side of the lock.
    - BOOM, the magic.

    Holy Mackerel. It worked. I bought the lock for $5-6 dollars and used it for 2 months and then I forgot the combination. I was getting ready to throw it away, but I was mad because I spent good $$ on it. I saved it in my desk drawer and then found your video. I tried it. First time was unsuccessful. But on the 2nd try, I marked my paper clip and saw the pin drop 1-2-3-4 and I had it lined up. I followed your advice. I wrote down the 4 numbers to make sure I had it lined up. Then I moved it over 2 spot to the left as you instructed. Pulled on the lock and MAGIC happened. It unlocked. My friend taught me how to reset the 4-digit code so I would never forget again. Perhaps you could do another video and show owners how to reset their locks. Thank you for saving me $5-6 dollars. I did not want to throw away a perfectly good working lock.

    Fantastic!! Thank you so much!! I have had two of these locks mysteriously change combinations in the past 2 weeks - which seems to happen while they are open and accidently get rotated 90 degrees and depressed and the numbers rotated (sounds unlikely - but it is extremely easy to do accidently and unbeknownst to you). The first time I was in the gym and thankfully was headed to work out vs coming back from the shower!!!! Took my 15 minutes of guessing which numbers got rotated and amazed I found them. Just now used your method and it worked great. Thanks!

    Awesome, Bill! I should have checked for this video before hacking it off. Your technique worked, though. Has anyone ever had one of these frustrating locks "change" it's combo, accidentally? I don't know how, but mine did.
    Update: Doh! It did it again! This time I picked the lock. Lesson learned: be careful not to allow the locking bar to rotate 90 deg. and slide into the combo changing slot! Even without rotating the combo numbers, it changes! If I didn't know how to pick it (thanks again, Bill), I'd Chuck these crappy locks!

    Hi Bill, I bought a brand new 4 wheel Master padlock from a car boot sale. After wasting about an hour trying to get the code from starting out 0000 and going up I gave up and thought i would give youtube a try. Hey presto, I watched your video and five minutes later it was sorted. Many thanks mate.

    Tried this on my silver version of the 3-pin lock that I bought six months ago. I initially thought that the method no longer works and Master Lock made an improved version. But nope, I just got confused about the numbers the needle would slide in (I already knew the code). I changed the pin to a random number, followed the steps and it sure works!
    Welp, there is the saying "Locks are for keeping honest people honest" I guess
