Adjust the striker plates.

I have a 1996 Sub. The doors do not close as easily as they once did. Adjusting the striker plates is one way to fix it but in my case it would not help. One the suburban door hinges are two pins. There are small metal sleeves with slightly different diameters for the top and the bottom. It is those sleeves and hinge pins that have caused my door to become loose. The fix is to repalce the pins and sleeves. About 12.00 per hinge. You have to be careful becasue there is a spring on the hinge and the door is very heavy for a one person job. I

There are just some simple things that your average person just can not do. this is one of them. saying that just makes you want to prove me wrong. so my question is, if your not smart enough to figure out your problem why are you suddenly able to correct it.-give up now before you make things worse. (well maybe just hit your latch pin with a hammer and get on with your life). what do i care what i say nobody listens to me anyway

That all depends on what problem the locks are giving you. If the key turns intermittently or with great difficulty I would recommend lubricating the locks with TRI-FLO WITH Teflon. Important: do not use WD-40 in locks EVER!! Use only a clean drying spray preferably with teflon. Using the straw spray a generous amount of TRI-FLO into the lock and then "scrub" the lock by working your key in and out rapidly for about 30 seconds. If your key wont turn, grasp the bow (head) of the key with a pair of pliers, and while putting GENTLE turning pressure in the unlock direction, GENTLY TAP the bow (head) of the key with a screwdriver handle. Take care not to hit or twist too hard as you will break the key If your key still wont turn...how worn out is your key? Is it a poor duplicate from Wal-Mart or Ace? You may want to consult a Locksmith and get a new key by code. approx $20.00 If the key will turn, but not unlock the car, your linkages may be disconnected, in which case you must remove the inside door panel and clip the linkages back into place. If this does not answer your question, please give more specifics and maybe I can help. Darin M. McFarland, CRL McCumber Locksmith Shop

Take off the interior door panel and you will see that it is held in by a couple of 10 mm bolts/nuts.

Detach the lock linkage,handle linkage and alarm sensor, remove the bolts tale the handle out.
