Each car has the doors, however, over time during long-term operation, they fail. More precisely, some of their functional doors are starting to function ineffectively or even cease to function.
In this regard, in the VAZ 2110 adjustment of the door locks is not a rare phenomenon. On the VAZ 2110 how to adjust door locks wishes to learn every driver and such a practical necessity arises from time to time.
General information on the functioning of the automotive castle
In the car, the principle of structure of all locks is almost identical. However, the ignition system lock is considered the most reliable.
From the point of view of the safety of the car is the last line of protection against hijacking. The doors of the car are the functional element that is daily subject to mechanical exposure from the outside.
Few of the motorists in practice to the doors of their own car belongs to carefully.
The main functions of the car doors:
- protective, which is to maintain safety;
- insulating, lies in the creation of the visual tightness of the car, thereby significantly increasing the level of comfortability of movement.
Note. During operation, all metal elements of car doors, which notice the naked eye does not represent practical complexity, must be regularly covered with anti-corrosion substances, since open metal areas significantly increase the likelihood of metal rotting, due to the effects of external adverse factors.
Practical view on car door lock
Cases when the practical need arises in regulating the car door lock:
- unsuccessful hijacking attempt and as a result, mechanical damage to the castle;
- overweight operational period;
- the impact of adverse factors;
- careless handling, etc.
Castle adjustment
Note. In order to adjust the automotive lock, the door itself is not necessary to take off. Moreover, there is no practical necessity in this.
Detailed control algorithm:
- initially, it is necessary to outline the contours of the lock itself, and be sure to stand on the rack;
- next, go to the calibration of the door and you need to determine how free it is closed;
- in case the door closes extremely tight, it is paramount to weaken the fixture fastener screws;
- the field of relaxation of screws, the retainer itself will need to move slightly into the outdoor side, and then re-screw all the nuts again;
- if the car door opposite is closed too loose, then the lock must not be shifted, but on the contrary inside.
Note. It is necessary to ensure that the car's door itself has been made in the form of a single monolith.
- sometimes it happens that the car door when closing, slightly lifts up, in this case, the retainer must be slightly lowering down;
- if the door when closing the opposite is slightly lowered down, the retainer must be slightly smooth.
Note. The main thing is objectively understanding that the entire essence of the door adjustment is in the position of the lock, or rather in the vector of its spatial orientation.
Algorithm for adjusting the lock of the luggage compartment of the car:
- initially, it is necessary to remove the casing, in order to make a practical ability to relieve all three screw fastenings of the lock, by relaxing the exhaust tension;
- after that, it is necessary to move a slightly lock in the desired vector;
- then you need to tightly tighten the screw thrust of the attachment;
- it is good to check the efficiency of the locking function of the lock;
- if the lock is bad or vice versa, it is fine, it must be re-adjusted;
- as soon as the final adjustment will be performed, it will be necessary to screw the lock nut as much as much as possible;
- carefully make sure that the latch and the retainer are well docked each other, but if it is not observed, you need to slightly reduce the degree of tension of the bolted fastening, and then shifted the retainer itself in the required direction;
- after all the listed technical manipulations are successfully completed, it is necessary to verify how easily the luggage compartment door is locked and if the result is negative, the adjustment of the retainer will be repeated again;
- now you can safely tighten all the fastening bolts.
Note. Sometimes the luggage compartment lock can be jamming during the cold season, as a result of the freezing of the keyhole. In order to prevent this phenomenon, it is necessary to pour several drops of vaseline oil several times a week into the key well.
Instructions for adjusting doors with their own hands is extremely practical and easy to understand, however, use additionally photos and video materials is a prerequisite. Because this will help to significantly save funds.
The price of adjustment of the castle in car services is insignificant, however, most likely the workshop staff will simply replace it to increase their own degree of material benefit.
