    Is there a trick to the rear and side double door locks? I put all new locks in and both front doors now work fine. The back and side doors spin and move the metal sliding peice inside...but I can still open them. Even when I take the locks out and move the metal sliders manually they do not lock. I did have to wd40 the crap out ofvthe sliding peice for it to work...lol.

    When the C gets pushed down,it is supposed to block the handle from turning,,,,,and most likely it is worn out,,,,

    You might be able to fix it with drilling out the rivets or welding some more metal on it,,,,,
