Hi ,if you advise which van you have ,someone may be able to help.

The actual springs are very difficult to find. Your best chance is to make a replacement yourself using the broken spring as a template. The spring wire is available on eBay buy enough to make several springs . It does not have to be an exact copy so long as it works.
Use a drill shaft or similar to bend the coils around and two pairs of pliers to form the bends. If it is held on the shaft of the lock by a star washer then replacements would also be worth getting.

There's a clue here.......maybe it only shows on laptops and not on iPhones (if you're using an iPhone).

Our Autotrail hab door lock broke and unfortunately was obsolete. O'learys had a copy made in Germany and sold them for £100.00 plus delivery.

The brackets shown in the OP look like they are from Hartal Doors which are used by Bessacar, they did sell individual brackets as spares for roughly £100, but we haven't had the Bessie for 8 years now. Still have a Hartal door on the current Rapido and I have changed 3 different springs in the past 7 years and now carry the wire to make replacements when needed.
