[QUOTE="Caladin, post: 1285557, member: 39144"] It has been a bit of bad luck for me today it seems. While repairing a sticky hazard light switch I dropped small part of it into the fairing. I have now removed the entire right fairing and still have no sign of the missing part. It may have bounced under the fuel tank. An easy place to check normally. However, I now find that my seat simply will not unlatch. Typically I need just a slight downward pressure on the passenger seat and it comes right off. Not today though. The key (tried a spare too) refuses to turn the lock. I have soaked it in oil to no avail, it will not budge. When I turn it I can hear a slight click from the upper latch, but it wont turn the lock cylinder enough to get a release. Any tips on what I can do to get it to release. Any way to break into it without causing massive damage? Thanks [/QUOTE]
