1998 Chevy Prizm Front Wheel Drive Automatic

The key no longer turns in the lock. It's been happening before but I was able to jiggle it around and make it work. Now it won't turn at all. How do I remove and replace the lock cylinder?

You have to remove the lower trim panel to expose the lower portion of lock, insert small screwdriver in hole on lock to release it.

You can also take it to (or have them come to you) a locksmith. They can remove it and rebuild the tumblers and make new keys.
