ABSTRACT:
A motor vehicle door lock is equipped for cooperation with a central locking system able to lock all doors of a vehicle from a single control. The lock also has a pull closed mechanism which is driven by the same motor driving the locking elements in response to a signal from the central locking system. The pull closed mechanism cooperates with a fork latch for bringing the fork latch from a preliminary latching position into a main or final latching position, whereby door slamming for properly closing a vehicle door is not necessary. It is now sufficient if the user closes the door so that the fork latch is in its preliminary latching position since the present invention mechanism will then close the vehicle door completely.
