Title: Side case lock question.
Post by: satch on October 14, 2012, 10:00:26 PM

One of the locks on my left side case will come out when I turn the key. What holds the lock in place, an o-ring?

Satch,
There should be a "wafer" (I think they're called) furthest away from the lock face that doesn't move down when the key is inserted.
See this excellent write-up -> http://www.motobrick.com/index.php/topic,494.msg13707.html#msg13707 (http://www.motobrick.com/index.php/topic,494.msg13707.html#msg13707)

On mine, these also come out.  The lock tab had been filed off (or worn off) likely when attempted to rekey.

Replacements are about $30 from the BMW dealer.

You can buy a set of six of them with two keys from the dealer for about $65.  Part number is 51252303683.
