Happened to me once, five times in one day. Sprayed the entire latch mechanism liberally with WD40 the next morning, and then opened and closed the door about 30 times in a row. That was a year ago and it hasn't happened since. Never did find out why it was actually sticking, but have no reason to care. Hopefully the solution is as simple for you. - Ron Salmon The Bus Depot, Inc. http://www.busdepot.com (215) 234-VWVW |
