Glove Compartment on 02 camry

[MyStYlEaRt]

Just got my camry this morning and already I messed something up. I locked the glove compartment with the key just to see how that works, now i'm trying to open it with the key and it won't open. Is there a trick to opening it or do you think its broken. Thanks

It should turn with the key unless you are using the spare key, but you shouldn't have been able to lock it with the spare.

I don't know what the problem is, it locked perfectly now it won't unlock. Thank God nothing important is in there but i guess i'll have to take it to the toyota dealership

did you try all the keys you have?

Did you try wiggling it? (the key)

yea i tried everything that i know of. it won't turn at all and they only gave me one key.

Does that key work in the trunk?

I doubt they gave him just a valet key, if so, he shouldnt have been able to lock it. They holding pressure on the door, and turning the key at the same time.

Yea the trunk opens with the key no problem. I mean i'm trying everything nothings working.

The glove box lock cylinder is probably faulty.

yea thats what i was thinking. How much you think it would run me to get it fixed at the dealership?

I can't remember.

You should get a spare key cut and see if it will work first. You should have a spare anyways.
