  • Sometimes you can't open your car door because the outside door handle is broken and needs replacement but if the outside and inside door handles won't open the door you have a very different problem that's more serious and more expensive to fix - If you'd like to know the problem and how to fix it yourself - watch on

      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!

      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!

    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.

    • @carquestions

      Best advice is to use the owner's manual or description on fuse cover. Cheers from Canada - sorry about late reply

      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

      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.

      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!!
