Hi all
Just preparing for our trip this week.
Placed the battery in the compartment connected it up and all fine.
However when I come to shut and lock the locker door the lock came out of its receiver stuck to the key. I took 2 screws from at the back of the door and it revealed 3 lugs broken off from inside that holds the lock in place. Its design looks very weak.
Any ideas how I can mend it folks bear in mind that I am off this weekend abroad and in its present situation I cannot shut or lock the locker.

if your car could travel at the speed of light and you turned on your lights what would happen?

Had a similar issue with the wet locker on our van, same door as battery box.
I’m afraid a whole new door was required as the black lock cylinder housing was not available as a separate part.

I know, ludicrous.

XVI yes?

As well is two words!
How does a sage know everything about everything? or does he? or does he just think he does?
Remember, if you buy something you bought it, not brought it.

This happened to my cassette locker door.

I used superglue to put it back in and it's held ever since.

It was the whole lock that came out of the door.

If this is the same issue as mine, be careful you don't super glue the key in the lock.

Well I ended up asking a mobile caravan to fix it. Drilled a 1mm hole thru the flat metal part and inserted a keyring this worked really well.
