Help with Brinks TSA 004 Lock

Postby andy2003 » 17 Jul 2006 9:06

Hi,

I have a BRINKS TSA 004 lock which I use while travelling. It has two small windows (the size of a dot) one showing green and one showing red. Currently it is showing red, and I remember that it means someone tried to open the lock or something like that.

Does anyone know the process to get it back to the green circle?

Thanks,

Andy

"Set the dials to the correct combination and pull up the shackle.
Turn shackle 180 degrees and push shackle in. The Security Window should change color from Red to Green."

Cheers,
