Hello All:

1967 Volvo 122S Wagon. The interior push-down buttons that activate the door locks are very stiff, particularly the driver's door. Does anyone have a suggestions about how to loosen them up a bit? If it entails going into the door itself I will need some guidance for that procedure as well.

In other latch-related news: within the latch on the rear hatch of the wagon resides a plastic piece as indicated in the attached graphic. It is white in color and it broke. I cannot quite figure out what purpose it serves because the latch still closes and locks even without it. Does this piece get activated by the interior hatch release button? I can repair the piece since it is a clean break but I am having some trouble getting the latch assembly off the door. There are two screws but it seems to be "tucked" into the metal and I do not want to force anything. Any insight here would also be appreciated.

Cheers,

Jeff Pucillo
