Lock cylinder housing, removing and installing

Removing
Fig. 56: Identifying Lock Cylinder Housing Cap & Bolts

? Pry out cap - 3 -.

Fig. 57: Identifying Door Handle, Bolt & Lock Cylinder Housing

? Pull door handle - 1 - and hold in this position. Remove bolt - 3 - using torque wrench T10011 ( socket wrench T10072 introduced as running change) until stop. Lock cylinder housing is loosened by doing so.

NOTE:
†If bolt has been loosened too far, this may cause lock mechanism ring to loosen from mounting bracket and fall into door.

? Remove lock cylinder housing - 2 - at right angle to door from door handle mounting bracket.

Installing

? Insert lock cylinder housing at right angle into door handle mounting bracket.

? Now screw in bolt into mounting bracket using torque wrench.

? Door handle engages again into lock cylinder housing with a very audible click.

NOTE:
†During installation, door handle and lock cylinder housing must be pressed onto door plate.

? Then, perform in reverse order of removal.

†Then a function test must be performed, since door cannot be opened if adjustment and clips of Bowden cable are not correct.
