Sliding Door lock cable

Post by stew73 »

Hello, on an 86 Caravelle should the cable be adjustable? Mine's not so even when the door's locked the little movement in the handle opens the door.
Cheers.

I was in there on mine the other day - no it isn't adjustable. I wondered exactly the same thing myself being surprised that there was no adjustment. It isn't hooked up on the foam pad that is preventing it from rattling on the door skin is it?

Yeah I'm surprised there's no adjustment. The smallest movement in the handle opens the door!
