Mazda Repair: 1995 Miata Console Lock, key code, glove box
QuestionI bought a 1995 Miata. The key does not lock the center console. How do I replace the lock (or find a key) that would let me lock and unlock the center console? Could a locksmith help?
AnswerIf the key opens the trunk and glove box door then the console or lock may have been changed at some point with either a new Mazda one or a used one. If the key does not unlock the glove box and the trunk lock then you have a valet key in hand, Sadly there is no key code on that lock so neither a dealer nor locksmith can make a key for it . The locks are a matched set from Mazda. If it's a valet key you can obtain a factory key from Mazda by VIN. If not then the only solution is to buy the console lock set from Mazda it will come with a key that will only open the console lock.
