Driver side rear door won't unlock - others work fine

Post by wbmartin3 »

Ok, I know this is probably simple, but perhaps someone with experience can keep me from damaging the interior door panel while removing to check the actuator. Is there something that "typically" goes wrong on these doors. Does anyone have a diagram?

I took it apart and found that the lip that holds the panel to the top of the door had unglued off. I glued it back on and now my problem is worse. When I unlock the car and try to open the driver door, it almost always re-locks now, whereas it only used to do it once in a while. I think the problem is that the rod that holds the button got bent. I'm going to re-attempt the fix and let you know how it goes. If anyone lese has a suggestion, please share.
