Description
Product Overview
This lock set is designed for Citroën Xsara and Xsara Picasso models, providing comprehensive security solutions for driver and passenger doors, fuel cap, and ignition system. The set includes locks for both front doors, the fuel filler cap, the ignition switch, and one matching key, making it an essential replacement part for motorists and professional mechanics alike.
Functionality and Usage
The lock set ensures secure operation of vehicle entry points and ignition, protecting against unauthorized access and vehicle theft. The ignition switch controls the electrical system and engine start function, making it critical for vehicle operation. Door and fuel cap locks maintain the integrity of the vehicle’s safety systems.
Replacing the lock set is recommended when locks show signs of wear such as difficulty turning the key, sticking, or failure to secure properly. Common reasons for failure include wear on tumblers and internal mechanisms due to frequent use or exposure to dirt and moisture.
Installation requires removing the interior door panels for door lock replacements and careful disassembly of the ignition column for the ignition switch. Proper alignment and testing after installation are crucial to ensure smooth functionality.
