Have a look at leisureshopdirect.com, go to Thetford spares and you'll find a whole section on doors with exploded diagrams.

Hope this helps.

There are two different types of lock on the Thetford toilet service door, one with a single centre lock which is the older version and the later version which is a top corner lock with a single button at the bottom corner. If it's the later version with the corner lock then this picture in the link below may help to identify roughly how the lock goes together.

I think Thetford changed the design of the toilet service door around the year 2002 give or take a year either way.
I take it that the door lock is in the position as shown in this photo?
