245 tailgate internals 200 1983

One of my 245s sometimes used to rattle inside the t-gate, and it turned out to be the linkage from the lock to the latch.

The thing you described sounds like the lever or "switch" to engage or disengage the child-proof latch. In one orientation, the tailgate can be opened using the inside handle. In the other position, the inside handle is disabled.
