97 K1500 - Key will not go fully into door lock

I have a 97 K1500 and the key will not fully seat in the driver's door lock. The key will go in but needs to go another centimeter to fully insert and work. My backup key does the same thing. The key still opens the passenger door and then I use the power lock to open the driver's side. While my girlfriend appreciates that I open her door first every time, I would like the option of opening the driver's door from the outside.

The lock doesn't appear to have anything stuck in it and I also flushed it with some WD-40 with no effect. Thanks for the assistance and any suggestions.

It's broken. Open the door, pull the door panel, roll the window up...or down, (whichever gives best access) remove the lock cylinder.

Take the lock cylinder and your key to a locksmith.

Replacement is the opposite of removal.
