Re: 93' 9000 Aero hatchback lock will not engage Posted by Ari [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: 93' 9000 Aero hatchback lock will not engage, jeff, Wed, 20 Jun 2001 23:39:52 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I'm confused at what is (and isn't) working.
When you close the hatch, does it not latch, or does it latch and not lock?
If it doesn't latch, first make sure the latch is grabbing. That's the hook end on the hatch part. With the hatch open, the hook should be open. If it isn't, find out why it won't open (bent, needs lubrication, broken spring). If it is open, put a screwdriver shaft (or any other rod) in to see if it'll grab it.
If the latch is grabbing, make sure it hasn't moved out of alignment. It can slide up and down on some bolts. If it's too high, it can't grab.
If it doesn't lock, that's a different story - there are tricks for that.
