Subject:Droopy Slider Handle
From:Geo & Kathleen Hahn
Date:Wed, 19 Apr 2006 16:48:42 -0700

The sliding door handle on my 84 Westy droops when the door is open...
i.e. it works fine but does not return to the horizontal while the door
is unlatched.  I'll be taking the door panel off to recover it so it
seems an opportune time to try to sort this out.

Is this a common ailment and if so what can I expect?  Perhaps a broken
or dislodged spring is the culprit but I doubt I'm lucky enough that it
is anything easily put right w/o disassembling the bowels of the latch.

Thanks for any help or advice.

Geo Hahn
