Anyone recognize this latch?
Lav door latch (see link below) for our motorhome fails to catch the strike plate. Tried to disassemble only to discover that a previous owner used some kind of permanent adhesive to secure the handles. Handles must come off before mechanism can be inspected. Angle grinder will take care of that, but I want a replacement in hand. Latch measures approx 2 1/4 wide and 3 5/8 tall including the flanges.
Also ... who would you seek out to identify mfr or find a suitable replacement. https://www.flickr.com/photos/136182989@N04/? Thanks, Larry |

Thanks, Larry Did you check for a small snap ring - holding one handle on ? Just a thought - I have no experience with this hardware. Is the motorhome manufacturer still around ? or a good dealer ..
