Hi.
As you probably know the car will not lock if the flap in the ignition barrel does not slide into place when you remove the key. This is a common problem over age. Try to clean it carefully, and then lubricate sparsely with a non sticking oil. WD40 tends to get sticky over time. Be careful not to get anything stuck in the key hole or flap mechanism.
