The quick and dirty way:

After dark, go out with the car keys, Mini Mag
flash light, and WD-40 with the LRT.

Roll the window down. Lean over, look in
with the mini mag. At the door edge, you
should see mechanism. Use the LRT to hose
down the latch mechanism.

Pull the door lock and opening handle (while
watching from above into the door) to see
what moves. Hose it down again with WD.

Remit $47.50 for internet consultation.

Is the "LRT" similar to the "Smart Straw" shown here?

I'm assuming that's what you were telling me to use to get the spray to
emerge lower than the top edge of the window slot.

Thanks,

LRT are what we used in the days before smart
straws were invented.

Same general concept. Much less convenient.

Yes I do remember them, those semi stiff pieces of plastic tubing about
3/32" diameter that you stuck (not very firmly) into a hole in the can's
spray cap.

They got misplaced very easily too. I used to tape length of plastic
soda straw with it's bottom end folded closed to the side of the WD-40
can to have a spot to keep it in.

Now, what did "LRT" mean? I'm guessing the "LR" stood for "long reach",
but did the "T" stand for "tube"?

Little Red Tube is what I've always heard it referred to
