Not really fixing, but it fits in this thread.
My parents had a safe, and I ended up with it from my mom's estate about 8 years ago. Luckily, it was unlocked when I moved it out of my mom's condo. But, with a granddaughter rapidly growing up, I can see that dial getting spun one day, and I'd be screwed. I was able to take the back cover off the door, and disassemble the lock, it was a Sargent & Greenleaf with aluminum wheels, seems to be pretty common. I struggled for about an hour with turning the dial and getting all the slots to line up, and I just couldn't get it to work. I finally went on S&G's website, and figured out the first dial turn is to the left, not the right. Once I started the right way I got the numbers pretty quick, and had that "Oh, yeah, that's the combination" moment. I wrote it down, but I'm sure I'll forget where I put the piece of paper.
