930 central locking only locking one door

[krasuskyp]

SEE YA - yes, please - thanks. I'd replied that earlier to you, if you have a chance to post one that'd be great as anything at this point would be helpful!

Gary - HUGE THANKS for confirming that piece for me... that was really throwing a curve into this process.

I ASSume the window wouldn't work if that piece HAD come from my current regulator? Works fine, so fingers crossed.

And now my sunroof went from not opening quite all the way to just making a sound but no movement... awesome.

knowing ^that^ piece is not part of the equation I dove further in

got the handle off, took opportunity to wax the finger box (errrrrrrr?) since it was exposed and clean up the gaskets nicelike

Failure mode appears the screw which retains this whole mess to the back of the tumbler loosened then eventually pulled the top few threads out. I had to use a longer slightly thicker thread to get it to hold, but all's good there.

once handle's off, latch mechanism reassembly would seem to only go one way as most of it is keyed and obvious, with exception of how 'this' is clocked:



Anyone got a pic of how the clocking of those 2 zinc coated arm pieces are supposed to fit together? The bottom one (spring retainer) can only go one way as the spring ears once inserted then key into the plastic tumbler barrel bore. But the top zinc arm is 'geared' with the bottom one, at their midpoint where that little boss is seen. Can clock the arm more CCW a couple mm's...

more pics of this:






I thought I had it right, but turning the key only unlocks that door (manually), once that lock is up the passenger one trips open... but then the key does not engage anything from there... no lock no unlock (until you lock the car again from other side and repeat process.



So my question is - how is this area supposed to interact? Meaning, the tumbler's lock 'arm' (lever on the left in ^pic^) to the door lock's lock 'arm' (appears with grey coated tip on right in ^pic^).

When you turn the key CCW to unlock, the left lever comes down and interacts with the grey tipped lever on the right.

Thoughts?

The first one is before, I move the white wire across to its right location down the door.
I hope this help need anything else let me know.

Also thing to remember, the drivers door will not lock the door it just unlocks it. A feature to stop people locking themselves out of the car.

Do you need anymore help?

[krasuskyp]

yes, unfortunately I very much still need help

thanks for the pictures, the angle of the latch ones makes it hard to tell the clocking

someone on the 911 board posted this one which is helpful:



it looks like mine is on right, but maybe I'm not clocked enough toward the latch?

anyone?

btw, the driver's key does lock the door as well as unlock... just not while the door is open - I think that's what you meant 8-)

Let me know what else you need?

[krasuskyp]

thanks

would you mind measuring the distance between the handle's swing arm (pin) and the latches swing arm?

that would be most helpful!

[SEE YA]

I can do that but not till Sunday is that ok?

[krasuskyp]

sure thanks

[SEE YA]

Its about three inches the gap.

[krasuskyp]

[SEE YA]

No worries, need anything else let me know?
