Hi all,
Can you please give me some help with my 2000 Disco.
The internal latch on the left hand rear door only opens the door half the time. The other half it acts like the child lock is on.
I printed out the page of the rave cd & decided to fix it without much luck.
Firstly I removed the trim and had a look at the mechanism. It is cable operated from the latch to the lock. This cable obviously needs adjusting, the first half of the travel just takes up the slack in the cable leaving not enough travel to open the door reliably.
The rave cd tells me to "release exterior handle control rod from latch" this is where I get stuck, anyone know how to release this rod? I can feel the rod with my fingertips but can't work out how to disconnect it much less how I could reconnect it. Has anyone managed to disconnect this rod and then when I get it apart am I likely to find any adjustment on the cable or do I need to replace the cable. For now I have lubricated the latch and it is working 80% of the time but this will still have the kids winging.
thanks
from Marty.
