Rochshox SID Not locking out properly

Hi title says it all, I am no expert with the mechanics of bikes, just riding. My SID's when I lock them out still have quite alot of movement. They have been like it for about a month. I have bought a shock pump incase its the pressure but would appreciate any advice before I try to fix it myself which will no doubt end in disaster knowing my luck. Would a service be a better option as the bike is almost a year old but not been battered over that time? Cheers in advance

have you set the flood gate?"Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

I have not touched the forks at all, to pressure alts as I am waiting for my mate to show me as he was going to when I bought him his cube on my credit card but guess what, still waiting. cheers. You have totally lost me with the flood gate quote, it does wheeze a little when i press down if that is an indication of anything?0 -
How much does the fork move when locked out? A centimetre ish would be normal.
