We have a 2015 Rpod 179 with a door lock that no longer works keying in code. Any suggestions on where to get a good replacement, model # ? Thanks! ------------- Skyward 2014 179 R Pod 2004 Ford Explorer XLT |

Hello Skyward We also have a 179 and have replaced our door lock. We did not have nor want the push button key free models. we used this unit from Etrailer.com. It was an almost exact replacement. https://www.etrailer.com/RV-Door-Parts/Global-Link/295-000019.html Etrailer has many types and models to choose from under the heading "RV locks". Measure your door carefully as ours (made in 2015) probably is different. I have ordered many things from them and find them excellent for customer service. You can actually talk to a real person and get reasonably good information. If the new lock is not a perfect fit at the door latch, a little filing usually makes it work. Doors and frames tend to shift a little as they bounce down the roads. WD-40 is your friend. good luck Travel safe and often Vann ------------- Vann & Laura 2015 RPod 179 https://postimg.cc/0zwKrfB9">
