Kev - decided it was video worthy half way through - but at least you know where to poke around to get it to open - not easy and dealer will charge big bucks to fix this - Cheers from Canada!
Thank you for this vidio. I spent hours trying to figure out how to open my 73 Camaro driver door. Your vidio explained it a way that made sence. 2 minutes later boomb it opened. Again thanks
Have got a jeep Cherokee 2015 drivers door will not open from both sides in and out it’s closed aswell please help me am getting in and out off the other side it’s a nightmare 🤬🤬
You need to get a slim Jim and try from outside or inside to get at the backside of the lock to unlock it - or get a locksmith - good luck and Cheers from Canada
You need to spray loads of WD40 towards the Latch from above and get a slim Jim / coat hanger and fiddle with the latch from inside as suggested in the video - good luck Quarth - Cheers from Canada!
Having door issues on my 99 Grand Marquis. Inside/outside handles "open" the door but it'll be stuck, pushing the door back in and pulling on the handle a few times seem to work sometimes but not always. Visual inspection of the door latches of the working and non-working door do not show any difference. Thanks for uploading this will check the things you've pointed out in here.
I have a 2003 Wrangler Sport TJ, and have a “no fuse” alert. I am having trouble locating the IOD fuse. Any idea where it is, specifically. I cannot find it.
This happened to me in 3/4 doors in my 2009 G37. Driver / passenger and rear passenger. Only way I get in is by the left rear door. Started to happen after winter season started
2:40 @carquestions because I don't know the part, it's that piece between those 3 big screw holes on the metal part, in that long hole you could slide your finger In. I've been sitting in my car since I replied with heat on (just for me) but the door finally closed. That lock/latch/actuator. Whatever it should be called has moved. Huzzah!!
I live in Australia I have a 2006 VZ Holden commodore i had the same problem took it to a locksmith he open it with in a minute I would try a locksmith first rather than destroy the door.
Hi whereabouts in Australia are you? we have the same problem with our 2004 VZ Holden and took it to a auto electrician which we were advised by a locksmith and was charged $1400 and only lasted 6 weeks and back to being unable to open again. Did you take your car to just a locksmith or someone specialising in auto locks? We would appreciate your input as we are unsure as to who to take our car to get this problem sorted.
😂😂😂 Same but I did find a video I was gonna attempt but take a shortcut route... youll see why. 😅😅 Maybe watch if you haven't to see if u want to atleast attempt it. Their TH-cam channel is called "EasycapExpertti" and the video is titled "Mazda6 driver door won't open- easy 15 minutes way to open inside" even tho the actual video is like 2 minutes.
my 2018 Q50 Infiniti drivers door won't open because someone broke the lock, trying to break into my car. The dealer is giving me a runaround. Who would be the best person/expert to take this to?
@carquestions i meant the internal lock a d screw placement.y⁷ýI ended up breaking all the plastic plugs pieces and pushing a small thing screw diver down the lock to release the lock. Luckily I bought a bag of replacement plugs when I did the speakers like a month ago.
Come to find out how to open it.. dudes got door open from the start. Helpful.

Great video. Thanks! Currently I can open the door from the inside but not the outside 😂. Will give this a try.
Glad it was helpful - Cheers from Canada Zach!
My door won’t open, won’t unlock, won’t lock. Can’t take the panel off because of this. What can I do?

And a special thanks to Matt from Flamborough Gas for finally getting the door open with a coat hanger!
It actually says "Special thanks Bro" at 5:15 but the end role is on top of it.

Rusty on the inside of the door latch - lube inside as much as you can
@@carquestions After I got the door open and I sprayed a generous amount of WD-40 inside and it worked!! Door back to opening and closing.

Best advice is to use the owner's manual or description on fuse cover. Cheers from Canada - sorry about late reply
On 2010 Lincoln MKT front driver side door handle won't open (opens on inside handle). I've taken the panel off, but now what?
You need to look closely at the inside part of the door look - or better yet remove the door lock for close inspection - maybe rust is jamming it up
If the door can't be opened from either the inside or outside, how do you open the door to fix it ??????????
You would watch the video of course - it mentions it
I have Buick regal grand sport and it will not open with key will not open at all
get a slim Jim and go towards the lock - good luck - Cheers from Canada!
Spray it with w d forty next

Well done - Cheers from Canada!
Good info thanks for sharing.....
Anytime JB - Cheers from Canada!
Strange video, if I can't open from in or out, how do I remove door panel ???
You have to use a slim Jim or other similar method to get access to the lock and latch
Got a toyota solara. The door latch got stuck in the open position after being stuck locked shut. -11 degrees when all this happened.
I'd try a safe source of heat very near the latch - hair dryer, torch - not too close - Cheers from Canada!
@@carquestions update soon, wish me luck.
I do - let me know what happens - good luck@@shypony5820

You're welcome - Cheers from Canada!
In my door I think the only issue is the cable, because both handles are loose. Or it's something else and feck me then.
the latch lever on the lock mechanism is rusted likely - not the cables - use slim jim
@@carquestions Yeah, you are probably right. I looked inside, and the cables work fine, I think it's the lock mechanism itself.
Or a Mazda.
yep
My mazda 08 driver door is locked we're you able to open yet??

1. Talk faster
2. Get a camera with optical stabilization this is nauseating to watch
Thanks for taking the time to complain - Cheers!
He could just not take the time to make a video to try to help. Would that be better for you? Lol
Always the back door.
