GregTas Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 I've reassembled the doors on my 240 and have found that the button drops down by itself. So if I close the door it just locks. The doors were disassembled when I bought the car so I don't why it does this. Does anyone know what keeps the door lock knob up and prevents it dropping back down?

gilltech Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 From memory - & it's been many years since I took mine apart to clean & lube them - there's a spring inside the latch assembly which acts on the lever & rod & provides the very positive knob up / knob down options. When next in my garage I'll check the workshop manual to see if there's any illustration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregTas Posted December 23, 2018 Author Share Posted December 23, 2018 Thanks. I'll have a look and see if the spring is there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
