Corrective Action

1. Open the stowage compartment.
2. Remove the fastener from the end of the weatherstrip.
3. Raise the flipper door.

Possible Cause

Protector strip on lid is to long or to short.

Diagnosis

Visually inspect the end of the protector strip. The strip should be cut on a forward and upward angle. The lower edge of the strip must be flush with the edge of the lid.

Corrective Action 1

If the strip is to long cut it off on the same angle with the lower edge flush with the lid.

Corrective Action 2

1. If the strip is to short, peel the strip back 75 to 100 mm (3 to 4 in) and stretch the strip to lengthen the strip so that the lower edge is flush with the lid.
2. Reseal the strip to the lid.
