door problem

[johnnymolloy]

well i washed th car yesterday and came back inside and when i went out to drive it the drivers door wont open i tried everything to open it from the outside the inside with the keys with the alarm and nothin jus wonderin does anybody know wats goin on or have this happen to them

[jackaleks]

is there any resistance in the handle? the cable could have slipped off or the handle has unclipped. open up the handle (two bolts from the back, behind the bit of trim) and it should be obvious!

this is how people snap their handle, being too forceful with it.

happened to me, but i could still open from the inside. like the above, just take it off and check everything and give it a good coat of some form of lubricant.

cheers for the replys lads
 
theirs no real resistance ,but it does seem to feel like something isnt catched on
 
jus wondering how do i take of the bit of trim does it just pop off

yea, the plastic on the inside (behind the exterior door handle) just pulls off as it is on the pop retainer clips
