Passenger side door latch

Post by turfite9999 » Tue Jan 05, 2021 5:24 pm

Hi bongonoughts
Can anyone tell me how to remove and replace door latch, I cant seem to be able to shut door, maybe its twisted or jammed.
I have removed inner trim but cant get passed the steel panel for all the workings i.e. window mechanism, lock handle.
Hope someone can help, many thanks in advance

Do you mean the sliding door or passenger door ?
Have you tried the mechanical parts drawing site for more info ? http://www.lushprojects.com/bongopartsmk2/

This video might help, just ignore the first bit about the tailgate.

Looking at it I recon you should be able to remove the latch once the panel is off and you remove the screws holding it from the door edge. :wink:

Hi again guys, trying again to replace or fix front passenger door latch, do you think I`ll have to cut out the steel panel to replace? finding it hard to get to after removing door trim.

Thank you in advance

Which bit are you trying to gain access to ?
The loop - striker on the "B" pillar 58-570A ?
The motor / lock within the door 58-340 ?

58-302 is the screw that holds the locking mechanism in place, if you unscrew that then the motor and lock itself will come out of the door once you have released the wire links to the handle and locking button full details of the mechanism here http://www.lushprojects.com/bongopartsm ... no=.html#5 which holds all the mechanical/parts diagrams .

Hi bongonoughts

I know it`s not a usual problem but has anyone ever changed the latch/locking mechanism on passenger side door please.

If so please could you advise how to do it or to access it?

Many thanks in advance

Hi Geoff,
thanks for the reply regarding fuses and the link,
The central locking seems to be working and I think I can get the latch out, I`m a little afraid of taking it out completely due to restricted accesses. I think it could be the arm that connects to the latch or the motor that operates the latch, (chicken and egg) The latch seems to be stuck so the doors wont close, just bangs against the catch bar (if you know what I mean) I may have to replace the whole mechanisms, if i can do it with limited knowledge, anyway thanks for your help so far

Tony
