sliding door replacement cable

[Sandy_moncrieff]

Folks,

During the last winter, the rear lhs sliding door of my T6 was frozen.
Like a “tool” I pulled it and it’s no longer latching in the open position.
The coach builder I took it to, reckons that we need a replacement cable.
I’ve trawled the message boards and wondered if anyone could have a part number for a replacement cable?

If you’re willing to tinker, you can do a fair bit of poking around in the sliding door without too much bother.

I’d recommend setting some time aside to remove the door panel and play around/observe what it’s doing.

I was convinced my handle/door lock mechanism was wrecked (very stiff to open) but saved myself £200 in unneeded parts by making careful adjustments and lubricating.
