Dear all
I hope someone can help me. I've purchased an Etas number 5 lock as a present, but the "vacant/engaged" sign doesn't flip to "engaged" automatically. I can see the mechanism inside and I can move it freely to either position. I think it's missing a spring or linkage.
Can some kind sole let tell me what & where please?
Thanks in advance.
hi,
you will need the door bolt for the other side of the toilet door, which has a rod that goes through the door into the back of the lock and when the bolt is thrown the engaged sign shows.
i had the same problem and sourced one on EBAY
cheers brian.
Thanks Brian. Was it a specific bolt for this type of application?Quote:

just to be sure, is there a slot in the back of the lock?, if so, put a pencil in and slide along to see if that is the problem.
give me a couple of days for the pic, many thanks brian.
Thanks for your help, yes, that's what's needed.
