    Default Chubb AVA lock decoding - 1986 Ford Escort

    One for the old school here...
    Just wondering if the door lock can be decoded by taking it to bits and getting the bitting that way?
    reading discs/tumblers whatever. I dont have a safe ventures style decoder for these.
    The car has tibbe drivers door and ignition, and Chubb AVA passenger door and boot lock.
    It needs keys for the Chubb ones.
    Also can used AVA locks be re-keyed to suit existing keys. Would like a 'one key fits all' solution for this car, if a AVA ignition and drivers lock can be sourced then I'd like to reconfigure them to suit. So it's all correct for the year.
    Can tumbler sets be bought for these still? Maybe from taxi/ldv spares places?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi mate .
    Yes these locks can be rejigged easily only 5 disks and 3 different sizes you can invert them
    ive got an ignition lock if you want it.
    Also I can help you reconfigure your locks.
    not sure it the Taxi one fit but I have a few of these too
    HTH regards Todd
