Defender 300Tdi rear door lock
Hi all
The rear door had stopped locking sometime ago. Closes and latches alright just won’t lock. So i took it off cleaned it and flooded it with WD40. Cleaned out the little hole on the side of the barrel but was unable to actually remove the barrel which the Haynes manual suggest you can (with the key inserted).
Anyway finally got it working on the bench so put it back in the door and I have exactly the same situation as before. Closed/latches but will not lock.
I thought maybe I am not closing it firmly enough and perhaps the latch isn’t rotating far enough for it to lock, but no matter how hard I tried to close the door nothing changed.
Any ideas?
Cheers
