Thank you for purchasing the AccuReader by
LockTech wafer reading system. This system will
allow you to read the door/trunk locks for the Chrysler
8 cut locks. Following a few simple steps it takes
only minutes to read the depths for each cut in each
position and produce a finished key.
The AccuReader works on the process of
elimination to decipher the correct depths of the lock.
By checking the deepest cut first you eliminate what
the cuts are not. Therefore it is essential to always
read depth slide #4 first.
The AccuReader key is designed to read any
wafers in positions 1-8. Most Chrysler doors/trunks
will have positions 2-8, once a working key is made
for the door simply progress space 1 for a finished
key.
ALWAYS start by thoroughly flushing the
lock and run a key blank in and out several times
to exercise the wafers.
Let me say that again,
ALWAYS start by thoroughly flushing the
lock and run a key blank in and out several times
to exercise the wafers.
SPACING
The spacing holes drilled into the key will
identify which space is trapped on most makes &
models. Simply start with number 8 and count
backwards the number of holes that are visible
outside the lock. For example, with the AccuReader
key inserted, if 1 hole is visible then space 8 is
trapped. If 3 holes are visible then space 6 is
trapped, and so-on...if 6 holes are visible the space 3
is trapped.
Please take the time to familiarize yourself
with the tools and verify all pieces are accounted for

USING THE ACCUREADER
1) Always thoroughly clean the lock with a electronics
safe cleaner to free any potentially stuck wafers.
2) Use the alignment holes through the AccuReader
key to assist in judging the distance from one wafer
position to the next.
3) Place the insertion/release slide in the slot on the
AccuReader key. Fully insert the AccuReader key
into the keyway and remove the slide. Pull outward
lightly until a wafer traps. You should either have
space 7 or 8 trapped at this time. To determine
which space it is refer to the SPACING section.
Once the desired wafer is trapped
4) Always start reading with the #4 depth slide
tool, then proceed to #3 & #2 in order, IF
NECESSARY! Fully insert the #4 depth slide into the
AccuReader key. The alignment mark on the depth
slide will line up with the (Y) Yes mark or it will line up
with the (N) No mark.
a) If the #4 depth slide lines up with the Y
then the depth for the trapped wafer is a 4. If the
depth slide lines up with a N, then you must proceed
to the #3 depth slide. ((Only proceed to the #3 slide
if the #4 slide read a No))
b) If the #3 depth slide lines up with the Y
then the depth for the trapped wafer is a 3. If the
depth slide lines up with a N, then you must
proceed to the #2 depth slide.
c) If the #2 depth slide lines up with the Y
then the depth for the trapped wafer is a 2. If the
depth slide lines up with a N, then the depth is a 1.
d) Repeat steps a through c for each wafer
position until you have recorded the depth for wafers
in the lock.
e) Once you have all of the spaces in the
door/trunk lock, normally 2-8 it is recommended to
use a fill program or progress space #1 for a finished
key.
