Hi! I have an 06 dodge charger. Can anyone offer an explanation as to why my key wont turn when inserted to lock or unlock the car door? If anything I would think that the remote will give me trouble but no. I have a spare key that does open when I insert it to unlock it. That's weird.

 

If it is a key that you use regularly and have on your key chain, it is not unheard of that the key can get bent or a tooth chipped from everyday use causing it to work. It may look right to you, but the slightest imperfection in the key will render it useless.

 

Thanks but the same key opens the trunk when i insert it. I may just be purchasing another key.

 

could be just a bad chip in that key with sensor for the door. dealer will replace it for prob 75-150 bucks depending where your at

 

I agree with the bad chip. The sensor isnt recognizing the key so it isnt letting you unlock it with the key. Dealership should be able to fix that pretty quickly

 

Thanks for the responses. I tried it yesterday and it worked. I believe it was stuck. -whew-
