1996 Hyundai Sonata Passenger Door Is Stuck

I have a '96 Hyundai Sonata GL. The passenger side door is stuck. Nothing is caught IN it... been trying to get it opened...wont work from the inside/outside. The door IS unlocked and still nothing. The rods from the door handle inside of the door seems to be fine....door handles on the both inside and outside are both perfect.

I have no idea what is going on. I was thinking that possibly the power locks just burnt out in the door and are now effecting.

1.Does that sound like a possiblility?
2.If so, how do I fix it?
3. If NOT, then what else could it be?!
Thanks so much!!!

    Hi I have exactly the same problem only worse... mine is the drivers side door, which is not only inconvenient but also dangerous as I can not get out in a hurry, I exit via the passenger door. great amusement for everyone at the servo when I stop for fuel.



    Would be happy to hear if anyone fixed theirs yet... driving me insane.

The door mechanisms give trouble
need to eyeball the internals
and inspect the internal works of the door

from drivers side remove the passenger seat
undo the door card as best without ripping it apart
if damage is possible source the same colour door card

Front passenger Door stuck on 2003 Hyundai Sonata.

Probably you got "dinged" and it drove the passenger side fender into the door. No space between door edge and Fender edge.
You may be able to pry the fender out so the door edge can "sneek" under the fender edge. If it wasn't a bad collision, the Paintless body people may be able to help you out. Stop by and let them take a look and give you an estimate.

2000 hyundai sonata passenger door lock stuck in locked position

If your talking about the teeth/latch that actually engage around the pin to hold the door closed and not the lock you puhs down to lock it. all you have to do is get a screwdriver or anything small and strong you can stick in it and pull the tooth back into the "open" position. You might have to pull the handle out like your opening the door normally while you do this.

Hyundai ix35 2012 window lock stuck. passenger window half down and cant get it to move up or down

Before you replace anything, inspect the connector pins in both the driver's door switch and the passenger door switch. If you don't find any problem with these connector pins, replace the driver's door control switch.

Wher is the power window relay for 1996 s-10 truck

Your problem is likely in the master switch on the driver side. Try getting a drivers door switch from the junkyard. I have a 96 Silhouette that I experienced the same problem with. After changing out the motor, and the passenger switch I finally traced it to the master switch. Power goes to the drivers door switch first and then over to the passenger door. It could actually be both switches. A bad relay would affect both windows not just the one side.

Passenger automatic lock

Hi There,
You'll have to remove the door panel....Once it's off you can determine where it's getting stuck, which may be on the door panel, then you can rectify the problem.
