Before replacing an access door seal, check this out.
My rear access door seal leaked pretty bad so I replaced the seal with the one Jon got from Amazon. Although the door closed off some of the leak it did not seal the rear area of the door. I was frustrated and decided I had two choices, either replace the door or try to bend the metal latch so it would pull the door tighter.
When I was looking at the latch trying to decide how I could do this, I realized that the latch was backwards from the latch at the front of the door. I turned the latch around and now it is really difficult to close the door but it does seal.
If you look close, maybe you can see that the front and rear latch are bent in opposite directions. I kinda wish I hadn't changed the seal because it is really hard to close the door. Maybe I can do something to make it easier.
