Hi,

Did this happen all at once or have you noticed changes in how it works? Is the key itself worn? Have you tried a different one?

Take a look through this link and let me know if it helps. I don't want to jump to the conclusion that the tumbler has failed until we've exhausted possible simple causes.

Let me know.
