Hi I am having the same problem with my sliding door.  I am going to be
working on tomorrow.  I'll keep you posted.
Yes the rear hatch should be a power lock if the rest of them are.  I don't
understand why the hatch is locking?

Subject: Sliding door lock

Hi all,

Didn't receive any replys regarding  my problem with my sliding door
lock. I'll risk it again.

My sliding Door Lock Mechanism doesn't work properly. Can't lock or
unlock the door using the lock of the sliding door. But I can lock or
unlock all the doors (including the sliding door) from the front
doors? Can this be fixed?

Also, the lock mechanism of my cargo door was changed by the previous
owner so now I need two keys to unlock the doors of the westy. Is this
supposed to be a power lock too? right now it isn't. My guess is that
the previous owner had installed a regular lock mecanism and it's not
correctly insalled.

The main problem with his installation is that the cargo door can't be
permanently unlock. I need the key each time I want to open the door.
It won't stay unlock. This is very annoying.
