Lock cylinder - PTL entry door

Changed the dead bolt actuator a few days ago. Works well with fob and switches, but not so well with the key. During the process the lock cylinder fell out and came apart. The knurled nut on it came off. I put it back together and didn't give it too much thought since the dead bolt worked so well with the actuator.
Now when I use the key it is a bit hard to turn (just feels tight) and it does not stop when turned clockwise to unlock. I'm pretty sure it used to stop.
Am afraid there is some tuning needed. I will take it out and experiment, but would like some help if you have experience or ideas.
Thanks, Dick
