door locks

Post by crashnburn »

I am having a problem with my front passenger door lock, the lock is turning and locking when I begin to pull on the door release handle, so the passenger has a hard time getting out of the car unless your hold the lock on unlock and pull the handle. I took the door card off and I still can not figure this thing out. I am going to need some help with this. I am going to post a youtube video shortly.

The plastic pin that holds the return spring for the handle has broken. Replace it with a metal pin. A search should get you the instructions.
