It only goes down to a 45 degree angle (and locks there) instead of the 90 degree angle on the drivers side. Any ideas on how to straighten this out?
Gregor, remove the drift pin from the handle. Then unscrew the part that the handle was connect to on the inside from the part on the outside of the window just enough so that you can rotate the inner piece so that when you reinstall the handle it will be in it proper position.
