#20 Old style Squire CP40 combination padlock. Set a new code, possible vulnerability & internals.

Here I show how to set a new code for a Squire CP40 (old style) combination padlock. I show the owner how to recover their forgotten code (open the lock), which in turn exposes a weakness in the locks security rating. I also dismantle/gut the lock and try to explain its operation. It is recommend that this lock is not used to secure anything of high value.

Every time I attempt to change the code on one of these bloody padlocks 🔒 that’s it it refuses to acknowledge the new or old code and refuses to open I give up 😢

Are you holding in the button at the bottom of the lock? Thank you for watching.
