That really worked my husband lock the doors by accident I seen you video after locksmith told me 200.00 I got on RU-vid went outside asked him for another truck key told him that this would work I kinda gave me side eye I told him to be patient go back to driver side let me do it he was doing it but frustrated while he was on the other side I got it open the first time so I got in the truck while looking at him thru the driver window HE CALLED ME THIEF 😂15 seconds Thank you for making the video
This just came in handy, thank you... i was at a truck parking for my 30, where a lady locked herself out, another driver was trying to help her by wedging the door open but no luck, i just happened to youtube to see if there is anything i could do to help/advise, came across ur vid, went asked for permission to try, and within 1 minute voila... again thank you.
Had my tools, power tools, extra small parts and other belongings stolen from my Cascadia without any windows broken which made me search on youtube on how someone able to open the door without the key. Thanks for showing this, now I have to take extra precautions to secure my stuff and definitely have an alarm system installed.
I spent about 15 minutes back and forth from driver to passenger side. I thought this was BS but finally I did get it to work! 🎉 thanks for the video. The best part was calling the locksmith (who was in route) to cancel😂
Thank GODDD!! 4 You!! I literally locked myself out and had a spare that wouldn’t work, got on RU-vid and found you and was back into my truck within 10 minutes!! Thank youuuu!!
Thank you so much for this, you just save my butt today. Got locked out and roadside assistance was going to come in three hours to unlock my tractor. Watched your video and I was already on the road less than 15 minutes
thanks for taking the time to post. just finishing my meal at a pa turnpike service area and a driver asked me if I had a slim jim, I didn't but the store sold them and he bought one. while he was eating his meal I youtube'd FL lockout and found your video, 30 seconds we were in and he took back the slimjim... thanks again, save travels.
Watched this video few months ago out of curiosity. About a month ago I went to Carrier refrigeration for a pickup. I parked my truck after backing up in the dock. Next to me was an other truck finishing loading. I see the driver coming over to my side...showing me something, he looked very worried..I roll down the window...he asks me if I speak Spanish, I said sorry I dont. He then shows me that he locked himself out while the engine running..I was like I cant help.....when he left my side it suddenly came back to me that I watched your video. I walked over with my key, I said I "know how to open it" lol I started wiggling the key the way you showed here..and magic, the door opened like a charm...the young Mexican guy was in tears by then, he was so thankful, hugged me, shook my hand. I was so happy for him. It must have been a nightmare realizing that you don't have spear key with you.
Buddy, I want to thank you. You saved me $75 dollars. I told my dispatcher that I might need a locksmith to open the truck and she informed me that I would have to pay the bill. I told her not to worry about it because I would get them out. Well,the old hanger wasn't working too well so I took a look at youtube. A few minutes later I had the keys out of the truck and now I will keep the spare on my personal key ring. Thanks again as you saved me a good amount of money.
Thanks man..That worked..I just used my Cascadia key to open a drivers Kenworth door..About 2 minutes of jiggling the key, all the way in and back out and BAM!!...That shit worked!..You are the Man!!
I just used another operators key for my freight liner tractor… I lock myself out at the receivers warehouse…. With a little wiggle and consistency I managed to open my locked driver side door… save me time and money! Thanks for the post! It really works y’all!
Thank you I was on a military base and locked my self out .. I called for Penskey road side help and no one could get base clearance..sat down on the side of the building for hours .Finally found your video and seen another driver pull up with a freightliner. I borrowed his key and got it unlocked within 5 min your video truly saved me a lot of stress and time!!!!
Locked my key today. Tried lockout kit, no good. Then I saw that you can remove a panel in the ignition on RU-vid but that seemed to much work. Saw a swift driver and with his 2023 model truck key got it open passenger side. Praise God! Thanks for this tip! Had that super good feeling when things actually work out.
You just saved my ass brother, normally in a Volvo but with it in the shop I’m in a loner Cascadia and I locked it on the yard last night. Was able to do this with the Volvo key 👍
Watched your video and helped somebody else. They were struggling even tried to pick the lock with the tools. Then I remembered there is a video for everything on youtube
When in doubt, go to RU-vid.. spent a good minute trying on the driver side till I went over to the passenger side and popped the sucker open. Thanks man
Dude you are awesome...I drove an hour to get into my truck, only to realize I left the key at home. This worked on my International prostar! Thanks a million
Holly crap it worked. Took me 15 seconds literally. Went to fuel the tractor earlier today and locked the keys. I didn't want to call my boss because this was the 2nd time I do this. Well I did this trick watching your video and it worked. 🤣🤣🤣 I was jumping for joy brotha. Thank you. I just subscribed to watch more of your videos.
It works. Might take 10 - 15 minutes of wiggling, but eventually it'll open. Have to get a bit aggressive with it to work, but not to aggressive to the point that you snap the key off in the lock. No guarantee that this works using different brand of truck key. More likely to work using key of same make and model truck. Most Important Part, TRY THIS METHOD ON PASSENGER SIDE DOOR. DRIVER SIDE DOOR IS HARDER TO UNLOCK WITH THIS METHOD. Good Luck to anyone with key locked inside truck. And thanks for this video.
OMG, hilarious. I did this for a guy who locked himself out just now. He was trying to slim jim his driver side, I did this on his passenger side and got in. He didn't believe it, so after he unlocked everything he had me do it again so I did with a small audienceof drivers. It just takes some jiggling and raking the key in and out.
Thanks to this video it bail me out of a big problem lock my self out of my truck literally just now on Sunday evening and after getting soak and wet was about to give up and the I look at this video and try it Someone else let me Barrow their key and it work appreciate the video
I can't believe that worked. Just unlocked my truck with a spare key from my old company that I forgot I had. I should probably have a spare made for the new truck
Thank you so much for sharing this helpful video I just unlock my husband truck he’s been working on unlocking his truck for half hour while I just watch your video took one of his old keys from his previous truck and this tip/hack and very helpful vidoe help us save $120 to get the locksmith come out and unlock it for us
I had to beg three different drivers to let me try this with their key before one let me but it worked! I can at least say this still works for modern freightliners! Make sure to try both doors for a good while. Took me 2 minutes on the driver side door with a freightliner key I borrowed from another driver after it not working on the passenger side for like 5 minutes
Side story: before looking up this video I spent like an hour try to get my dog to press the unlock button by baiting him with some jerky I got from a vending machine, it almost worked lol
Worked with my 01 silverado key too lol. But I don't have that truck anymore and I don't have another freightliner key and I'm locked out haha. Luckily I'm at home
My man!!!! I was angrily browsing solutions while waiting on the lock Smith 2 hours out, said fuck it let's try this ATTENTION DRIVERS. THIS SHIT WORKS!! Thank you so much you saved me some serious money and I'm I'm deffinatley gonna pass this on
