Door won't open... what type of lubricant should we use to get out of here? lol

[Light Ltenergy@...]

Hi Greg,

Great idea to keep in mind. As of this writing, yes... it is in the sun...
interestingly... my Captain opens the door about 5:30am without a problem, but
later in the morning is when I had trouble both days.... hmmmmmmmmm

Thank you for your help,
hugs,
Light

some times that holds the striker jammed. if this only happens in the sun? that
might be the problem

continued to play and pull until I finally opened the door. BUT this morning
was another matter. The inside handle would move like normal... but would do
nothing. I had to open the window on the curbside, above the couch and try to
open the door from the outside. (yes, my neighbors were selling tickets). It
took me about 45 minutes to figure out WHAT combination of things would get that
door open.
