rear door problems

(1/3) > >>

tomkbucks:
ok couple of issues - my rear door never likes to close anyway.. needs a good hard push to get it on the latch, but i found out that when in the back of it, the rear door handle does not work , its very loose and does not seem to do anything, is there a cable or something that needs to be tightened ? ive checked the haynes manual and it does not seem to be to usefull, any advice? i have a commercial and really need to be able to get out when i close myself in the back !

Skibum346:
Tom, I had the same problem and despite taking it apart (without the aid of a manual  :shock: ) I couldn't find anything obvious. However, liberal quantities of WD40 and spray grease seem to have helped.

that wont help for me as the read door handle ( inside the door ) does not do anything , seems to be 'loose'

Skibum346:
There are a pil;e of interconnecting rods that connect the various components, one of the retaining clips may have come adrift letting the rod drop out of the handle.

Same solution... take it apart and have a look.

Can you open it with the external handle?

tomkbucks:
yup feels like there is a lot of slack but it does open, just go tot owrk out howt o take it all apart !
