[VAC] 1969 Dometic refridgerator

[robert brandt <rdbrandt_1930@xxxxxxxxx>]

Any ideas for the following problem:  The freezer door
on our 1969 Dometic refridgerator came off during a
recent jaunt.  One of the end mounts on the door broke
where it had been previously mended.  It is now
repaired and the question is how to reinstall it.  On
each side is a spring loaded plunger with a raised x
that engages a similar recess in the door fitting. 
The spring loaded plunger has to be pushed in and
rotated at the same time so it will torque the freezer
door shut. Have not been able to figure out how this
is done.  I am going to call Dometic Customer service
and see what they say.  I have a thought to drill a
small hole in the holder and into the plunger and put
an assembly pin in, install the door and pull the pin.
 My doubt is: will the plunger rotate to neutral
before it plunges outward to make connection with the
door fittings?  If any of you have had this problem
you know what I am talking about.  

Thanks,
