  • help please Entry door lock

    Posted by David on December 2, 2017 at 5:01 pm

    we are on the road and the entry door lock (key) lock has quit working . I had to get the ladder out and putt mama thru the window . that’ another story for another day . I took the door apart and the lock assembly is in pieces

    the key tumblers work ok it’ just the lock mechanism.

    is that a part that could be ordered from prevost? or marathon? or does one have make something?

    we will be in phx tomorrow’ for a few weeks hopefully we can get something there

    thanks

    I replaced the actual door handle/locking mechanism earlier this year. The most difficult part was taking all the stuff Marathon puts on the door to gain access to the locking mechanism. Just have to remember how to put it all back together 🙂

    It’s a Prevost part …

    did you call Jeff? I’d ask him if he has one. If he does not, call Chuck at Commonwealth Coach and ask for him to pull one off one of the bus his is stripping.

    I would request a FedEx or UPS overnight to your location.
