Drivers Side Rear Door will not open

[Jay Vickers]

Hello.

I cannot open my drivers side rear door. Door will lock and unlock, when you pull the handle (even twice) it will not open the latch. Does anyone know how to get the door open, so I can remove the door panel and make repairs. Thank you in Advance.

You are most likely going to have to pull the rear seat out and move the drivers seat fully forward. Then pull the door panel off with the door closed. Once it is off you can check and see if the cable from the carrier has come off it hold down. Should be able to pull the cable with some pliers and get the door open. Once open you can perform your repairs...
