You should have the system in your car where it unlocks the doors if you go to lock them and your key is in the ignition That doesn't help you if you take your keys out, put them down, (did something which required your hands free such as answer a call) and then get out. But he clearly stated that he left his in the ignition, that's why I said that My keys were clearly in the ignition and still locked me out. Maybe the lockout feature is messed up in my car, either that or the key wasn't all the way in. |

Alright, I wanted to update on how things went. After hours of wedging and fishing the coat hanger through it, I gave up. I called the dealership and they recommended the only logical advice: To come in with my VIN and they'll cut me another key! After a trip there and 13 bucks later, it feels good to have access again. Thanks for all your advice guys. I'll be keeping a spare wired somewhere under the car from now on... |

Thanks for all your help guys! I feel like such an idiot, but i'll try the coat hanger method first thing tomorrow. Neon: It was an idiotic yet simple move on my part. I just got it home, and left the keys in the ignition while marveling at how great the car was. After taking it all in for a good hour, I locked it and went inside. It was at that VERY moment when I realized the key was still in the car. I know, scumbag brain... Again, thanks you guys! I'm sure I'll be back with a plethora of questions in the future- and yes, I'll diligently search first! |

Hi, I just bought a 1994 Celica ST liftback and as my luck would have it, just locked my keys in the car. I tried a slim jim and even tried wedging it, but didn't want to push it and shatter the window. Is there a better technique I can get in without calling a lock-out company/AAA? Thanks in advance. |
