can not open my drivers door

[rs2paul]

I shut the drivers door on my RS2 & it will not open??
Have tryed both inside & outside lever, but will not un-latch.
When using inside lever, it will set the central locking??
Any ideas??

pull the iside latch, there is a small posi head srew

undo this and remove (without dropping)

slide the whole of the latch casing towards the front and pull out

unclip the hook off the latch (do not loose the clip)

pull the hook whilst holding the outer of the cable

door should open

if not - erm - you may have a problem

Try locking the door with the key, then unlock and see what happens.

I noticed on mine if somebody pulls the passenger door handle up while the central locking is unlocking the door it stops working, inside and outside handle do nothing until i lock and unlock that door with the key to reset it.

If not same as above

if none of the above works,and it is not a central locking problem,then you should unhook the door panel to reach the hook of the inside latch.It may have been unhooked and lost its connection to the inside latch.

However if the door does not open from the outside either,then you should look for a new lock probably...

You can't unhook the door card because there's a screw at the side which is impossible to get to without opening the door.
