Thank you, this really helped me out, it happened to me yesterday while i was loading my van up after barbequing and it started raining so i didn't have time to mess around with it so i used a shoe string to tie it closed until i got home and pulled up this video. Just subscribed.
I followed your steps and got the lock back into proper position but it's not latching on to the metal base to lock now. Do you have any suggestions for this ?
