Adjusting bay door linkage (was Re: What did you do to your coach today)
I replaced the latch linkage on the rear most small doors behind the rear wheels.
If the linkage was adjusted so that the door would open when lifting the handle, the door would also open driving down the road.
If linkage was adjusted so door would stay closed when driving, the door would not unlatch with the handle.
The problem is the handle mechanisim is designed for use with two latches which are fore and aft of the handle while the rear doors have the latch under the handle.
I posted pictures. RearHatchLock_1 shows the bolts attaching a small flat bar to the handle hardware, RearHatchLock_2 shows the linkage position when the door will open and RearHatchLock_3 shows the linkage position when the door is closed.
Simple but effective and easy to do.
