Seat lock stuck problem

[Lord Popgun]

Dsinned, looking back at the beginning of the thread, I think MTC is on to it. When all is locked the key is at ~12 o'clock. Then turn the key clockwise and the helmet hook opens and the key stops at ~5 o'clock. Then you can reach behind the helmet hook and pull down the seat latch lever.

I'm sure you know all this. Is your key opening the helmet hook and going all the way to 5 o'clock?
