Cargo Door Lock Actuator
« on: June 28, 2014, 08:26:25 PM »
The door lock actuators are all beginning to fail since I bought the coach 2 months ago...go figure.  This great coach is not only giving me a great coach it is also doing it's best to educate me in the way of the "BEAVER"!  Does anyone know where to get these?  I've ordered what appeared to be the exact ones I need on Amazon.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002KR9PW/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
When I get them they are obviously different.  The shaft and ëye"on the ones I receive are too long to fit and operate the lock mechanism.  Fabrication of a different linkage is, so far, beyond my budding fabrication ability.  So far I have destroyed two of them (linkage rods).  So again, does anyone know where to get them?  Will Monico have them?  Which Beaver Coach place in Oregon would I ask?  Thanks for your patience in fielding my endless, it seems, questions.  In all pics the shaft on the actuator is extended because the original is locked in the extended or locked position.
Pics attached, I think!

Jerry,

Is there any identifying p/n's on the original actuator?  The rods, latches and other hardware are made by Sierra Pacific Engineering and Products.  The number is (800) 433-5554, but they may be difficult to deal with because you are not the OEM.  Their website is www.spep.com.

Jerry,

I think this is what you are looking for: http://www.trimarkcorp.com/en/zPlatform.aspx?platformid=86&categoryid=205

Thanks Karl, I never thought of Trimark even though that seems the logical place now.  I didn't look at the lock either.  Lots to learn!

If the Trimark connection doesn't pan out, the guys in parts at Beaver Coach Service in Bend should be able to help, Jerry, but not until Monday morning now.  1-800-382-2597.
