Lift gate handle

[eagleeyes170]

Hi everyone. I have replaced my rusty lift gate handle with a new one (part number 69090-60020), and I am waiting for the plastic cover to arrive. I had to remove the plastic trim on the interior of the lift gate, and disassemble the mechanism (the metal posts and such). Now that I have put everything back together, the handle will not engage the mechanism and I cannot open the lift gate upwards. I have looked inside the mechanism and have gotten it to work intermittently, but every time I lock/unlock the central locking, it "resets" and the handle will swing but will not open the lift gate. (i could swear i put everything together correctly, because it all seems to fit back together in only one way). Prior to this, the handle was working fine and opening the door every time. Has anyone had this problem before? help please!

Sounds like you need to pull the thing apart and verify you put it back together correctly

Slight, minor, thread drift here.

I'm about to replace the same part. I've done it on my two previous 100's.

I can't find any record of the part numbers for the two bolts that I need for PN 69090-60020. Nor can I find them by searching. Not close to a "local" dealership.

Anybody know what they are? Thanks very much.

I replaced mine recently. Once you verify you re attached all the little mechanisms correctly, ensure you didn't engage the child safety lock nub location between that handle in the locking mechanism. If it is engaged it kind of does what you have described. Also make sure you reconnected it so that it can be engaged and disengaged.

I just did the same thing, and having the same issue.

I'd like to bump this up, and "revisit" it as I'm about to replace the rusted handle assembly on my 2003 100, and ai need to source the two bolts for the handle assembly { P/N 69090-60020 }.

I'd rather not make the trip to a dealer, hoping somebody has a part number for the bolts so that I can order them.

Thanks.
