i have changed the engine in my corsa from a 1.4 sri to a 2.0l redtop i have done some wiring but only for the engine loom! but now the car has decided to lock me out! i turned the key to the left first and the car locked, i then turned it to the right and now it wnt open! the passenger side has locked too and the boot has been smoothed so i cant get in through them either? the car has central locking but not on the key, it is in with the car! any ideas on what to do or does anyone know how to break in to the car?

first you must prise the top of the door frame out about half inch with a plastic or softish lever,protect the paint with tape,then wedge frame in this position,now you will need to use a long rod to either flick the door release lever or try and lift the button,if the door still wont open it may be dead locked,which means it wont open even if you are inside the car,there are ways but complicated to explain,next bet would be to try and get a key cut via dealer or lock smith via chassis number.good luck.
