I have a simple question for any mazda pre 94 truck owner. Is the
ignition key suposed to fix the door locks on a 92 mazda b2600?
I bought a used truck and got one key with it, but it will not open
the doors. I am not sure if the locks are seized or they need a key
made for them.

Thanks

If they are anything like my '93 Mazda 626, the ignition key also opens the
doors... and that is a FLIMSY key.

When I bought the car, the passenger lock was seized up good. A few shots of
WD40 into the lock, then wiggle it a bit - repeat daily - and the lock
should eventually free up.

'91 Mazda B2600.  One key for both ignition, door locks and gasoline door
flap.

it's possible the ignition key is different. how? I'd guess the ignition lock mechanism
busted somehow (steering column lock, or other complexity).

then as a fix, it was cheaper to live with two keys, rather than replace *all locks* to
match the "new" ignition lock. (not that it matters much, but i'd expect the "new"
key/lock set was probably a complete steering lock/key assembly, bought from a
wrecker.)
