So went looking for the 2 key set for my 96 Caribou. 1 for the entry door and 1 for all the access doors. Missing in action. Can't get to the battery or fresh water fill. Options to replace locks? Any ideas? Sent an email to Fleetwood this morning with S/N but thinking too old for them to be able to replace keys. Tear them open and replace everything? Huge job. Lock smith? Expensive.Anybody had this issue? Please tell me I'm not the only bonehead:S

the access doors should be a common lock for most RVs. copy the number on the lock and go to an rv place. I will bet you can buy a lock and key with that number for a couple of bucks which will give you access to the compartments.

Most of the RV industry uses the same keyed lock for the compartments, like buzzcut stated.. Many entry doors are keyed alike also

Borrow your neighbors key to get it open. Also most of the aluminum structure walls will bend enough to gain access with just using a large flat blade screw driver with no damage to the door jams.My truck has the PUSH BUTTON DOOR ACCESS for the drivers side so I keep all my spare keys etc in the truck glove box.
