My door lock has a screw to hold the barrel in place. The screw has fallen out and needs replaced. What size is it?
 
1993 defender with the lock barrel held in by a screw. I am guessing it is a 6 ba screw but I would like the correct answer
 
The Defender Parts Catalogue doesn't list a screw to hold the lock barrel in place, it's a small pin that you have to depress to remove the barrel.
If yours had a screw fitted I can only presume that it was fitted by a previous owner.
 
Do you mean the little screw that goes through the plastic operating arm, through the housing and into the plastic key barrel extension?
If so then no I don't know what suze it is, I would just find a screw in my random screw collection.

As you can see I have found a screw but it may be a bit short. Previously I couldn't fully tighten the screw or the door didn't lock/unlock!
It seems I have a mismatch of parts!
 
That's different to the one I did last week on the Ninety. The key barrel end section was plastic along with the operating arm and plastic washers.
The screw was a self tapping screw since it was going into plastic.
