   First step, spray some WD40 into the lock.

   Be surprised how many people don't try that.
   
   To get at the lock itself you'll need to do the following:
   
   Open the door, on the edge there should be a little rubber stopper which needs to come out.
   
   Once it's out you need to insert a small screwdriver into the hole to push the lock cylinder clip in (I found it a right ball ache).
   
   Once the clip is in the cylinder should just lever out. When you get it out you can check it for damage, clean it, lube it up and hopefully you should be ok.
   
   If its knackered then you'll probably have to replace it.
