Sliding door

Postby Morney48 » Fri Nov 28, 2025 9:42 pm

Hi everyone, I’ve recently bought a 1003 ford transit high roof(camper) but the sliding door isn’t locking and every other door is. Is there anything common I should check first?? All help appreciated.

Shouldn't this "1003" Transit be in a museum..?? :mrgreen:

Assuming you mean 2003..?? Check the three push pins on the sliding door contact..and the contact pads, rear of door...Often the door drops out of alignment and the pins/pads don't line up any more.
