LUBRICATION
Mechanical parts having contacting surfaces in
relative motion with other body parts are lubricated
during assembly. To maintain ease of operation, it is
recommended that these parts be lubricated at the
basic service intervals shown in the Maintenance
Schedule with the following lubricants:
Rear Stowage Compartment Lock Cylinder Door hinges - oil (30 weight preferred). Apply
A lock cylinder with snap-in tumblers is used for lubricant
to roller and hinge pin bushings.
the rear stowage compartment lock. The lock cylinder
Important has four or five tumbler positions. The number 1 or 2
position (closest to cylinder head) is a brass retainer Do
not apply to hold-open link and roller
tumbler. The
2 through 5 positions or 3 through 5 contacting
surfaces as this could cause improper
positions are standard tumbler positions depending roller operation.

DOOR JAMB SWITCH
Door jamb switch assemblies consist of a plunger,
plunger collar, threaded retainer and terminals. They
are installed in the front and rear door hinge pillars.
When the door of the vehicle is closed, the plunger is
depressed which creates an open in the ground circuit.
When the door is opened, the plunger is released and
completes the circuit to ground (Fig. 41).
When a new jamb switch is installed and the door
is closed the first time, the plunger is forced into the
sleeve and automatically adjusts the jamb switch for
that particular door. If a jamb switch fails, it should not
be readjusted by hand. A new jamb switch should be
installed.

DOOR HARDWARE LUBRICATION
The mechanical components of the door
assembly are lubricated during assembly. If additional
lubrication is required, use the following lubricants.
Black lock cylinders should be lubricated with a light
oil. All other door lock cylinders should be lubricated
with a general purpose silicone lubricant, part no.
1052277 or equivalent. Door hinge pins and rollers
should be lubricated at normal service intervals with 30
weight engine oil. Do not lubricate hinge roller to
hold-open link contacting surfaces as this may prevent
the roller from rolling properly. The remainder of all
door hardware mechanisms except lock assemblies can
be lubricated with part no. 1052349, Lubriplate
Spray-Lube "A", part no. 1052196, Lubriplate
Auto-Lube "A" or equivalent.
HARDWARE ATTACHMENT THREAD LOCKING
All door hardware production attaching screws
contain an epoxy thread-locking compound to insure
that the minimum original torque setting will be
maintained.
Service attaching screws may not contain a
thread-locking compound. To prevent loosening of
service screws or to renew thread-locking
characteristics of production screws, the threads of the
fastener(s) can be treated with part no. 1052279,
Loctite 75 (or equivalent) which is a two-part material
applied to the hardware attachment as a liquid. Upon
installation and tightening, the adhesive cures to bond
the attachment and prevent loosening or back out. The
adhesive bond does not prevent future attachment
removal if required. Loctite 75 or equivalent can be
used on any threaded fastener.
DOOR LOCK SYSTEM
This portion of the manual contains the service
operations necessary to remove the door lock and lock
cylinder assemblies. Any work performed on lock
system hardware requires the removal of the door trim
panel and inner panel water deflector.
Service procedures for spring clips, connecting
rods, locking rods, inside handles, outside handles and
the door lock striker were described previously in this
section.
DOOR LOCK ASSEMBLIES
A fork bolt lock design is utilized which includes
a safety interlock feature. The door is secured in a
closed position when the door lock fork bolt snaps over
the striker bolt. Doors can be locked from the inside
by sliding the door inside locking knob. Both doors can
be locked from the outside by simply sliding the
interior door locking knob and closing the door or by
using the proper key.
Do not attempt repairs to correct lock
discrepancies. Make corrections through
replacement of lock assembly.
