Bought new TSA suitcase, it's locked itself - how to open it?
I just bought a suitcase, so the combination is 000 (I didn't touch the numbers) and I locked it by mistake. How do I open it?
Best Answer
First, these numeric locks are useless, see this video on how to Decode Luggage Locks. Second, your image is blurry but if I see it correctly that's a TSA 007 isn't it? Well, here's a video on how to pick TSA 007 locks.

How do you open a locked TSA luggage lock?
Push the button on the lock to put pressure on it. Depending on what type of lock you have, either slide the button to the open position or pull down on the lock itself like you're trying to open it. This should put the mechanism into the "open" position on the inside, even though you can't open it yet.How do you unlock a stuck suitcase?
The packaging on the locks indicates whether they can be opened by TSA. In some cases, TSA officers will have to open your baggage as part of the screening process. If your bag is unlocked, then our officer will simply open and screen the baggage if any item alarms.\

Answer 2
The default code is 000 but you have to open it by pressing down on the small button and then pulling open the mechanism.
Answer 3
ALL you need to do is keep on 000 and press the tsa lock towards the lock. It should open. I just received my replacement suitcase and had to go online to see why it also won't open. No instructions are ever given from the company .
