I know people have had this issue in the past but this is a first for me and Ive taken the panels off a couple times before.
I did the air filter a couple of days ago and ever since the latch won't work correctly. The key seems to work, I can press down on the latch with a screw driver and it will lock and unlock with the key. It seems like either the lid isnt going down far enough or the key lever isnt moving back into place properly.
I have taken it apart three times to make sure it was installed correctly. I cleaned all the grease and gunk off and applied new grease. When apart the key disengages the latch fine. It doesnt always move back completely into place after but if I push down on the latch with a screwdriver it seems to lock fine even though the lever isnt fully engaged.
I've read a bunch of the posts about others having issues and couldnt find a solution. I'm open to thoughts.
