Drivers side door wont open from the outside..

[TomT]

Did try an have a search but couldn't find anything then gave up.

Anyway, was parked up somewhere with a few friends etc earlier and went to get back in my car, pulled the handle and nothing..

I'd left my window open so I pulled the handle inside and it opened fine, just will not open for shit from the other side?

Now when I come out to my car I have to climb through the passenger side or lean over open up the drivers side and walk round.

Anyone know why the fook it's not opening?

take door card off and check conection to handle. sometimes they disconet them self when you slam dors.
jost pop link back on place.

Oh ok, cheers. Will try an have a look later, best way to get the door card off? Knowin' me ill fuckin' brake it tryin'.

door card is only a torx bit in the inner door handle and another just under where the side mirror adjuster is, you are better popping off the plastic from the side mirror and then the door card will just pop off as its only clips

same thing happened to my door and if you look inside the door (pretty awkward) there is a hook the handle connects to, just clip back on

Oh ok mate cheers
