Nothing wrong with the barrel.....it was working fine until no.1 son broke the key

Just drill out the pins, push the button down and pull out with long nose pliers. If you already have other barrels you can tape the drill bit depth based on the pin depth of the new ones. Worked for me with no keys on all 3 doors.

Off to have a looksee

More arse than class with the drill.......could get the last bit out which has the detent in it so I ended up pushing it inside the mech

Now it was raining and I just wanted it back together however I think, if you have a key than turn to the lock position to line the stent up with the hole, this kinda makes sense as you can than use the key to pull on the barrel

Ignition tomorrow arvo
