Alright so while trying to fix my door today, I seemed to get it to where it will not open from the outside. It will open from the inside no problem, but it was very hard to open before and now it won't open and I don't know why. Is it the handle? Or what. Does anyone know about doors and door problems? Thanks in advance!

It opens from the inside correct?

Open it, remove the door panel and check for any sort of bent linkages. Also may be the outside handle, but most problems start from the linkages on the inside the door.

a long time ago on an old car i had the door was messed up. dont remember which side it opened from, but i took the panel off and there was a little plastic clip that connected two small metal rods and the clip was broken so when i tried to open the door the rod just moved. I want to the junkyard and got a new one and after that it was all good.


a little more info
one rod came from the handle and only made a connection at the other rod via the clip. the other rod went from hhe hook or whatever that opens when you open your door. so when the clip broke....

you get it im sure.

sorry for writing so much.
