    This saved me a bunch of time. The problem was that the key wasn’t all the way in when I reset it. Placing the key partially in allowed me to reset the key correctly. Thank you for making this video!

    Omg thank you for posting this. I just rekeyed my lock and messed up. I was panicking and telling my toddler not to touch the lock. Your trick worked and I rekeyed it properly.

    Thank you for this tutorial. I struggled for a couple of hours with two keys not working. Watched your video and was inspired to try your suggestion……..IT WORKED!

    Thank you so much! I was so annoyed when this rekey didn’t work, then I found your video and had it working in a couple minutes.

    Excellent advice!! This helped fixed 2 locks that I hadn't keyed correctly... Didn't push key in all the way.

    You got lucky. I've had this happen to multiple locks (I'm a landlord) and I KNOW I did the rekey procedure correctly and your fix (partial insertion and lots of jiggling) didn't work for me. The kwikset locks seem to glitch like this about 25% of the time when you rekey them.

      I'm having this issue right now... Been trying to finagling with the key I used for a half hour.

    • @noelv1976
      @noelv1976 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I don't think it's luck. I just did this and it worked. I had to jiggle it a few times just to get it turned 90°. Once it turned I was able to redo the rekey operation and it works perfect

    • @utahchika
      @utahchika 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I had the lock in the wrong position when I started (up and down instead of sideways) and I think I’m out of luck to fix it

    • @BlackwaterDSM
      @BlackwaterDSM 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      These locks are TRASH. I’ve done this about a dozen times with different locks, and know to be SUPER careful holding the key and going slowly. Still just got locked out 15mins ago with neither key working…. On about the 4th lock out of a dozen. Complete trash. And best part is- Locksmiths say they can’t pick them. They have to be drilled. For $100. DONE with CRAPset locks.

    I turn the key as directed to the left and insert the kwikset key tool.I do not hear any click. I try to remove the key and it will not come out.I tried it again with another video having you turn the key to the 90 degrees to the right and the same thing. I cannot pull the key out after using the smart key tool. What am I doing wrong??

  • @RussHodes
