Hello,
Has anyone taken apart the rear automatic hatch lock motor housing? I
believe I have it right to re-assemble but a few items
are confusing. Pictures are here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/62140935@N05/
#1 Shows both housings, top picture has motor and gears
#2 Shows large gear removed and flipped over. The round notch concerns me,
as with the motor removed the notch simply
moves the plunger L/R (lock). With motor in it is rigid. On reassemble
is their some sort of "set point" for the notch, or
just install the large gear and the contacts on the other housing will
simply center the motor/gear to were everything
should be.
#3 The pointed piece has a spring on the inside, causes tension when the
plunger (bottom right) is pushed IN. As far as I can tell
unless the motor is active, seems to be no "spring tension" on the
plunger. Is this correct? What is this spring for?
Thanks for any advise, Don (AZ)Have something to add on this topic today? Revive this thread in the forum »
