Locking mechanism on barn door

[emanoo]

Hi - I've searched through the threads and can't find the answer to this specific question - all help appreciated! Our T6 has got a deadlock on the barn door which we want to remove and rewire it back to the original lock / central locking. Investigating the problem, we can see that the rod that connect’s the outside handle to the lock mechanism has been removed. Anybody know where we could get hold of this part or even what it’s called? Many thanks! Two photos attached - one of our inside door with the part missing, another showing the part I think we need!

Thanks mmi! That was exactly what we needed - got no 52 from our local VW garage, sorted!

Hi there. Just picked up a T6 and have the exact same problem with aftermarket slam locks fitted to rear barn and sliding doors. Your picture is exactly the same as my van so I'm guessing they were L4V locks??
Anyway, just wanted to check how easy it was to fit the new push rod but also whether you fitted a new rod for the locking button, part 59 by the look of the drawing.
Did you have to do the same on the sliding door as well? Haven't opened the panel on mine yet but expecting a similar issue!
What sort of cost am I looking at for the parts?
Apologies for all the questions but hope you can help.
Pictures of my door attached.
Thanks

Sorry to revive an old thread.

Hoping someone can help. I’ve got slam locks on my barn door and want to reinstate the original. I’m missing the three rods but not sure on the part numbers apart from 52 as mentioned above.

Hi, if you haven't already figured out what parts you need I might be able to help. I think I still have some invoices for the parts I bought a couple of years ago - happy to share the info. My local VW van centre were extremely helpful identifying what I needed, maybe try yours? I've also got the slam lock installation instructions which were useful to reverse engineer the fitting.

Ah thanks that would be great if you don’t mind sharing the part info and the slam lock guides. I had them but seem to have deleted them

You do right reviving an old thread - starting a new thread when there is an existing thread is considered downright rude by some on here hehe

Here's the slam lock guides. I'll go looking for the parts invoices but might take a while!

Invoices not where I thought but found some emails from VW which confirmed I needed parts 52 (blue), 53 (green) and 59 (red) - colours as per your diagram. However, I seem to remember I needed the connector at the top of 59, but don't have a record of buying it - I think its parts 39 and 45, one or both, I'm not sure, sorry.
Hope that helps mate.
