Abstract
A rear door latch remote control assembly for a dual-door arrangement includes a back plate mounted split-pin having a pair of operating levers pivoted thereon. A release lever, pivoted on the split-pin, is formed with an arcuate guide slot receiving a link pin. A locking lever is formed with an arcuate guide slot which also receives the link pin. With the locking lever in its latch releasing position, the actuation of either rear door handle unlatches the rear door. With the locking lever in its latch locking mode, actuation of either door handle causes its associated operating lever to freewheel, thereby obviating unlatching the rear door.
