Stuck latch on propane access door

Good morning Thor Community. Thank you in advance for your replies.


My propane access door latch is inoperable. The latch handle will open about halfway, but never feels like it is engaging the latch pin mechanism. In other words, the handle is "flopping" loosely for about a 45 degree rotation. It simply will not go further. I've tried pushing in the door to relieve the pressure off the latch pin and i've applied quite a bit of muscle when attempting. No success. I don't think this is a simple friction issue.


Being the propane access door - there is no way to get to the compartment from another bay and there is no lock on this lath handle.


I've read an older thread that does not seem to have the same characteristics because of the particular door that is stuck. If I"ve missed something, my apologies for asking someone to repeat their solution. Again, many thanks!
