You posted this 5 years ago and it's still helping people today. I had a problem with the latch being jammed and the door not shutting. I found your video and it worked and luckily was an easy fix for me. Thanks a lot for the information!
8 years after uploading, but still saved my day. Lol a vehicle at my work had a stuck latch and I was told we were going to have to have the vehicle towed to a shop for repair. 5 mins of my time and a TH-cam search saved me from looking like an idiot at a repair shop. Thank you!
lol towed?? You can almost always rig up a big loop & macgyver it closed. I once snapped a handle in cold temps & couldn’t close while working, luckily was a plant lady & am used to horrible cold, so I had scissors & chopped up a shopping tote, secured the door using the window frame, and enjoyed the -20F breezes til after work.
You sir are a godsend, Me and several of my friends have been trying to turn around that little latch for half the winter now and never thought to hold the handle up while you turn it. You've saved me countless hours of annoyance, sir. Thank you for doing what you do.
9 years on and still providing knowledge. My latch was stuck in the up position and I tried everything…..apart from pulling up the door handle before releasing the latch 🤦♂️. Thank you so much!
Thanks so much sir! This morning my father was going to work. He started his Dodge charger to warm it up before leaving, he found out his door was not closing. We live in Canada so it's really cold here right now in the winter. He didn't know what to do until I found this video and fixed the problem for him. He made it on work on time, thanks.
Thank you so much for this video. I was stuck in the parking lot with my kids for 40 minutes and it was getting dark. Your video helped me figure out h the problem before the last sun light. A big lifesaver!!!
Absolute lifesaver. I"ve been driving around with a bunjee cord holding the door closed for the last three days and your video solved my problem. Just had to pull the handle up!! Thanks!!!
The beauty of the internet is that I was stuck in a jam with a used vehicle and no experience with the mechanism, found this video, and solved my problem. Thank you, so much. I appreciate it!
watched about 20 complicated videos where people were taking off door panels and damaging their car interior. you can imagine my relief when the advice in this video worked perfectly. thankyou!!
Finally I found this video after many useless wild goose chases. I closed the door with the seat belt in the way. The safety lock mechanism activated. I could not release it and so we had to go back home with the door not close or latched. My efforts to fix the problem in a parking lot failed because of one simple fix explained in this youtube video. I did not raise the exterior door handle while trying to open the safety latch. When following this video's procedure I can fix the problem in about one second or less with any nearby nail file, screwdriver, nail clipper, small finger, etc. pulling on the safety latch WHILE RAISING THE OUTSIDE DOOR HANDLE! I thank you very much providing the answer for solving this dilemma for me.
Because of you...I don't have to take my car to the shop. I asked 3 different guys to help me fix this and none of them Wimps could. One guy worked at an auto sales place and gave me the name of a friend that had a shop. The idiot was using me to get his friend paid. Isn't that something. You are a lifesaver! Thank God for you.
Apparently Tauruses are known for this problem in cold weather, and I've been known to tie my door to the frame with yarn in the winter. This video finally showed me how to get it working again, without having to wait for Spring. Thank you so much!
THANK YOU!!! Bitter cold snap and my car lock froze. I was messing around trying to get it unfrozen, and flipped the interior lock. So frozen and flipped. With heat and your video, I was able to fix the car lock. Thanks so much for taking the time to do this.
Thank you so much. I thought I was going to have to take the panel of the door off. My dodge dakota has been having issues with the latch and sometimes it would just open as I was driving. Very scary! But you saved the day for me. Thank you so much. I truly appreciate it.
Thank you!. There’s been something up with my drivers door not shutting off the lights and radio when open. I went to fiddle with it this morning and managed to get the latch stuck in the lock position. After not being able to pop it back I found your video. Never occurred to me I should be lifting the door handle while doing it 🤦🏼♀️ Eight years and this video is still helping!
I am an air force mechanic and I ran into this problem at 2 AM as it was begging to rain I looked up bad locking actuators bad cables panel removal and them I saw this video fixed my problem saved the interior of my car just wanted to say how simple this is it can be totally over looked and I really appreciate u making the video
THANK YOU! Your VIDEO just saved me life today!!! I fixed my doors...This happened to both of my front doors on my Nissan Van. I had to drive home last night with the doors tapped shut!!! LOL
Your video saved my friggin life! I know almost nothing about cars, I was checking to see if my window regulator worked, and after I had finished my door wouldn't shut! Meanwhile after panicking and crying, I looked it up, how to fix a door that wouldn't shut, viola!!! Your video fixed my door. So. Thanks man. 👍🙌
All of a sudden as a cold front moved in, I found 3/4 of my doors would not close. This worked like a charm and I had some lubricant on hand too. Very grateful!
Just want to send a quick thanks. My car doors were frozen shut and I guess with the ice, it didn't close right and next thing you know, the latch got stuck. I was in a big rush to drive my daughter back to college (Sunday night), so zoomed to youtube, found this video.. with flashlight in hand, fixed the issue. Thanks.. this video saved me a trip to the dealer.
Boy you saved my ass. Thank you so much. I was tinkering with the door for a while. Nearly about to cry. Yours was the first video I watched. Fixed in 10 sec flat. Thank you !!!❤
Thank you so much, my mom's door not latching was the icing on the cake to so many car problems, and we were able to fix it without taking in it or breaking anything trying to do it ourselves with no guidance. Woo!!!
Hey, partner. Thanks a lot. I just fixed my wife's door instead of paying someone else to do this simple procedure. Folks like you make the everyday problems of the world easier!
Amazing. Very specific and helpful, and exactly what needed to be done with the rear door latch on my 08 RAV4. Saved me a 15 mile drive to my mechanic, and probably $$$. Thank you very much!
I can't believe it!! I was freaking out I had to go to court in thirty minutes (parking ticket guys im not a crook) and all of a sudden my door wouldn't shut I played with it for ten minutes. I watched this video and it worked in 2 seconds on a 2000 ford Taurus!!! AWESOME!!!
this was extremely helpful thank you! my five year old stuck his finger in the door and clicked the top latch and I didn't notice until my driver side door on my suv wouldn't close. I messed with the latches for over an hour until jumping online for help. who would have thought it would have clicked back after just simply lifting the door handle!! you are awesome for making this thank you!
I got the same problem n I set up appointment already in the morning. I talk to myself why not look at TH-cam n see how they fix it. Thanks to ur video brother, I fixed it 😊😊😊
thank you soooooo much for making this video. I worked on getting my latch unlocked for about an hour. I became so fustrated then i remembered you can get anything off youtube 😃
I was having this issue with the back door of my suv and didn't know what to do. I told my husband what was happening and while I was on the Internet looking up what to do, he just went out and fixed it. I asked him what he did and he described exactly what was in this video!
Thank you, sir!! I got home from work last night, got out of the car, and the door wouldn't shut! That is EXACTLY the problem I have. No calling anyone to help fix it, because I just did it myself. Thank you!
I just wanted to let you know THANK YOU....I had this happen today in icey weather ....I freaked out when I could not figure out for the life of me what to do....I DID EXACTLY WHAT YOU DEMONSTRATED AND WORKED INSTANTLY!
Never commented on a video before, but this one completely saved me! The step by step instructions and visuals made fixing this so easy. It has been a big issue for me since I live in a place where the winter weather is terrible! Thanks again.
you are a life saver dude. over at my 1st job trying to fix my door lock rod and all the sudden the door wouldnt shut. damn latch got stuck. lock rod still dont work. but at least i can close my door as i hit the freeway to get to my 2nd job.
extremely helpful , easy to understand. I am by far no mechanic and with these helpful instructions even I was able to get my door fixed. And now I know what to do when the door will not close. Thank you and keep those videos coming!
Thank you very much for this post. Door latch froze up on me in the morning in this cold Chicago weather. This simple technique definitely solved that problem.
Thank you very much! Finally, I was able to close that door! After a 30 min. drive on the highway with a hand on the door handle to keep it closed, I was very happy to find your video! Thanx!
Thank you SO much for taking the time to post this video. I had to watch the video twice because I dont know anything about cars but I Fixed It with your help!! My kids slam the doors all the time and that must have cause it. I'm so happy : )
You totally, 100%, saved my bacon! This happened to me today after I dropped my fiancée off at the doctor and I tried to get back in my car in the pouring rain. You made our day. Thanks!
thank God for the internet and people like you who put these things up i was messing around with that door for an hour and this fixed it in a second I feel dumb but thankful!
I just saw your video and thank you for making this. My door won't close sometimes when it's really cold outside. I tried your method and it worked. Thanks
so this morning I went to take my son to school and went to warm up the car while he was getting dressed. he was taking too long as so I decided to go check and see why he was taking forever because he was already late and when I went to close the door it bounced back. I had no idea how I was supposed to drive him to school so I literally drove him while holding the door closed the whole time. Long story short I tried for about half-an-hour freezing my butt off in 12 degree weather and killing my fingers. I couldn't fix it and figured I would go on TH-cam and see if there was a how to do video since there's always a how to do video about everything. I watched this video and fixed it in 30 seconds!!! it really pisses me off that I spent so much time trying to fix it when there was a 30-second fix the entire time. You saved my life thank you so much for the video good job!!!
Thanks for posting. This led me to a fix I've been working on all morning. My 2004 Expedition latches down instead of up. it was not releasing a catch up inside.
great video... I was honestly gonna rip the whole door off just now but wife told me to check TH-cam first and your video helped out a lot. the first video I watched too! thanks a bunch!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING WHAT TURNS OUT TO BE A SIMPLE FIX! THIS HAPPENED TO ME THIS MORNING AND THANKS TO YOU I DONT HAVE TO PAY HUNDREDS AT THE MECHANIC
You saved me! Thank you for this quick informative video! Both front doors suddenly stopped closing. It was late and cold and my son and I was trying to get home. This video saved me. Thank you.
OMG I WAS JUST TRYING TO FIX MY DOOR FOR 20 MINS. I COME IN WATCH YOUR VIDEO AND NOTICE YOU HOLDING THE DOOR HANLE UP. IM LIKE DUH GEEZ THATS WHY THAT PIECE OF METAL KEEPS BLOCKING IT. TY SO SO MUCH LOL. I FEEL TOTALLY DUMB RIGHT NOW LOL.
hey man this video is awesome, the only part people should keep in mind is that if its not working make sure the door is unlocked took me awhile to figure out why mine was stuck
Thanku guy! This is us. Ours froze on the beater I bought to "get thru the winter". Two of the damn things one on each side-at the same friggin time! What a nightmare.
Hey Sir your video still helping people out ! Looked up some help for door not closing yesterday, happened to me in that storm on Friday. Got tools I needed this Morning , Worked like a Charm. Thanks! Your Video well Explained !
Oh thank you so much for showing me how to repair the locks on my car that would'nt close. I did it and so happy about it. You are my hero backyardmech!
Thank you a million times for this video - we're having a huge snow storm here in NB with high winds - you can imagine how stressful it was wondering what we were going to do other than anticipate a car full of snow in the morning! This fixed our issue in the blink of an eye (Gotta give a shout-out to the demo car - it's exactly what we have! :) ) You saved the day!!
Thank you so much kind Sir. I am quite the damsel in distress when it comes to car mechanisms. Your video really helped me out, and was very simple to follow. Thanks a million, your the greatest!
Thanks! I was trying to fix one thing and I got it stuck and freaked out because it's about to rain and I came inside and looked on TH-cam and found your video and couldn't believe how easy it was to fix it!!
Thank you for the video ... This helped me fix my Honda car door latch just by pulling on the handle. I thought I should look up a video because it seemed like I was trying to hard which was definitely the case.
Thank you your video was a HUGE help with my car. I just had to do this in the freezing rain and without this video I'd be pretty screwed with the 100%chance of rain tomorrow.
thank you for this. I was able to help someone out by watching this video. it made me happy and you should be happy too because you were the one who really helped. thanks again.
THANK YOU!! It's -24, late at night, I have a 1 year old in the back seat, and I'm miles from home and my drivers side door wouldn't close. I don't know what I would have done if I hadn't found your video!

Thank you your video was a HUGE help with my car. I just had to do this in the freezing rain and without this video I'd be pretty screwed with the 100%chance of rain tomorrow.
thank you for this. I was able to help someone out by watching this video. it made me happy and you should be happy too because you were the one who really helped. thanks again.
Thanks. This saved me in 9 degree weather. I was driving down the highway 3 am holding the driver side door.
Thank you very much this video has helped me a lot. I need to go the hospital and visit my wife and my drivers side door would not shut. Again thanks.

No problem Stephanie :)
thanks very much, I've been working on my door larch for the past half hour and now it works!
THANK YOU!! It's -24, late at night, I have a 1 year old in the back seat, and I'm miles from home and my drivers side door wouldn't close. I don't know what I would have done if I hadn't found your video!
