In my case, the lock working isn’t really a necessity, but I really would like to get it working.

Well, it didn’t take the PB Blaster very long with the handle turned so this it all ran down inside….SUCCESS…it took some gentle persuasion, but the cylinder turned to the locked position and then freed up with a little exercise. Then, I was able to remove the cylinder as well. Now, I should be able to get it good and clean!

Brake clean the bejesus out of it to remove any old dirt, grit, and grease.
WD-40 makes a spray dry PPTE (telflon) that I use on items when you don't want it attract dust and dirt. Works a jiffy on hinges as latch mechanisms as well. My 54's hood never opened as easy until I sprayed the hinges with it.

I’m ahead of you this time! After the PB Blaster, I filled it with WD-40 to really work things loose. Then I used the brake cleaner to really flush it out. After that, I used Boeshield T9 that I use on my bikes. It was developed by Boeing and has cleaning agents. It goes on wet, but then dries to a long lasting dry lube. It works great on my bike chains as well as everything else I’ve used it on.
