72 3 door locks
 

I’m new to this. I have a 72 K10 3 door with barn doors on the back. The 3rd door and barn door locks aren’t working right - just got it back from paint and body w all parts installed. I lock the doors then close them and the lock pops open. Anybody ever have this problem?

You have to close the door then lock with the key they are not like newer vehicles. It was meant so you could not lock the keys in the truck since you have to use the key to lock it up.

OK. That makes sense. My third door does not have a lock on the outside, I’ll have to check and see if somebody closed it up. My old El Camino would let me lock the keys inside any day of the week.

Third door did not have a lock. You have to reach in from the front and push the button down to lock it

If I remember correctly the older chevelles camaros nova ext. you had to push the lock button down hold in the door handle button then shut the door and release the button to lock the door
