Hello - I am new to the forum and new to Rover ownership. I have a 1999 Disco 1 with a 300TDI conversion.

I think I have exactly the same problem. I have not dug into the door to look at the mechanism, but last night my drivers door lock cylinder stopped working. The key just spins in the lock.

Hoping you/I find a solution....

 

ME TOO MAN...BEEN 3 DAYS NO ANSWERS OR ADVISE........
I JB WELDED the broken part on mine and reinstalled.......no go, wont throw over enough to unlock......some times it will....some times nothin...some times it works (VERY RARE NOW)
now i cannot lock my rig.......or alarm gets set and i cannot get it off......lolololol

i dont know if i should bite the bullet and buy a used door handle,and some how put my lock cylinder in the used handle assy i get?????.........OR
or do i have to buy new so i comes with a new key???????

still confused as day it broke........lolol
someone will hopefully come along SOON .

 

dang 4 days and NOTHING............not even a DEAL WITH IT PAL.........lolololol
same with ROVAH FARMS.......4 DAYS AND NO RETURN CALL ,2 messages left now!

guess i'm on ma own this time...............

 

contact a person that parts out dead trucks such as Paul Grant or Will Tillery and check Ebay. Not sure if you have "U-pull" car lots in your area but that would be another source.

 

Deal with it pal...

 

JK, do you have a pick a part near you? Since you don't need the lock tumbler you could pull a handle assembly there. If not, Ebay. Buy used! I will have one available after the new years, but I imagine you want it fixed quick. You've done all the hard work of diagnosing and dismantling. I checked Ebay, too expensive, close to 80-90.

Paul Grant's info, PM him.
