All packed and ready to head out-- but...
We have two compartment doors that are preventing us from departing until we can figure out how to do repairs. The first is one of the doors has a broken catch (not sure of the technical term) that grabs when the door is closed. Obviously without that working the door just flops around.
The second is more worrisome as screws that hold the hinge have pulled out of the door frame. Not even sure how to go about repairing that.
Coach is a 2012 Fleetwood Bounder 33C. Called Fleetwood parts and for the first issue they have a part number: 100086444 BUT they don't have any in stock. Perhaps there's a generic equivalent? Still waiting for their tech support to get back to me on the hinge issue as the first parts person I spoke to was stumped.
I took some images showing both issues. The first two are pretty straight-forward and show the first latch. I've seem some videos on line and it looks like a reasonably simple repair IF one had the part.
The last two images show the hinge with the stripped out screws. No idea how to go about fixing that. Any input/advice much appreciated.
