I've gone though this about a hundred times now revisiting it every few days and I still can't get it to function.
When I disconnect the cable from the catch it moves freely when you pull the handle in the car. But when connected no amount of pulling will release the catch. The catch is well lubed and moves freely when the springs are removed and can be activated by hand when the springs are installed - although it does require a strong thumb to move the lever. Any ideas welcome before I do something I regret (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i.postimg.cc-6621-1557666773.1.jpg) |
