sheltered souls with a rant as follows

Quote:

A guy I know is having trouble .

First the back door wouldnt lock - so he got a new solenoid and
according to him it clicks on and off the same as the old one .

Not quite sure what he did - but when he closed the door - it jammed
shut and wont open .

Hes tried both solenoids and it makes no difference .

What he did mention was he thinks a small plastic ball joint (his
description) has popped out of somewhere .

The child lock isnt on & the other 3 doors work fine .

He says the panel is still off & havent see it myself so I cant give
more details about it .

So , Can he get the door open himself or is this a garage job .

if the cover is off, should be able to pull the rod that goes to the door
lock itself. I've seen a couple of late Carltons do this.
