Bit of background that may help figure out issue. Day before I found out about lock jamming, i washed my car with a hose by hand. Im suspecting water got into lock. Well it dropped to freezing overnight. By morning i cant turn the key even though its worked just fine before. I heat up a bottle of water & pour it as i wiggle key. It opens. I go into town. Return from errand to find it jammed again. I have no warm water this time. I try jamming the skinny spout stick of WD-40 in & sprayed & wiggled key. Nothing. I heat up end of medal part of key with lighter & stick it in hoping to melt ice inside. Nothing. I used a little too much pressure and plastic fob part of key bent slightly. What else can i do??? I love your blunt get right to it humor for your videos.

Hair dryer !   Blow into the crack between the door and body of car. And heat the key. Once you get the door open, heat the area on the edge of the door closest to the key cylinder. Once you have it warm, spray WD40 to displace the moisture.
