Door lock issues
Hey all,
In the past weeks, we've had issues on our 72 C15 with the lock pawl traveling past the lock mechanism "C", resulting in a jammed key in the door. It has happened on both doors. We are able to resolve by pushing down on the lock mechanism to allow the pawl to travel back into it's rightful spot, resulting in a freed key and working lock again. However, I can't help but think I've got something incorrect, or needing adjustment to allow these to work effortlessly. Can I get an assist on this to see how we can make this more reliable? Thanks in advance! Jon |

Re: Door lock issues
Thanks, my first thought was to shift to OEM pawls to see if that helps.
