ABSTRACT:
A vehicle body door lock includes a fork type bolt and a sliding detent member which moves between detent and undetented positions with respect to the legs of the bolt. The detent is slidably mounted in a plastic housing located within a box type frame of the lock. A compression spring biases the detent to detented position, with the detent being located by engagement of a shoulder of a plastic cap thereon with a stop mounted on the housing. A release mechanism for the detent includes an intermittent member movable between locked and unlocked positions with respect to another shoulder of the plastic cap of the detent through inside and outside release members.
