You don't say if it's in or outside handle, either way:

  1. go around the car and open the good door
  2. then you can unlock the broken door
  3. use the inside handle, if gone, use outside to open door,
  4. go buy a new handle and replace it

How do i replace offside rear door handle

You would need to take the pannel off to get to the internal part of the mechanism. Something has broken or come apart in the opening mechanism. I'd let it go if considering replacing.

Driver side door

Hi Paul, I'm glad to help! Most problems with door handles that won't open the door is broken parts inside the door. Pull the door panel off and move the handle while watching inside the door to see what is broken. Once you've found the broken part, simply replace it. Hope this helps and have an awesome day Paul.

Rear door handle broken. Mazda mpv 2001. lock works fine.

The relay rod inside the door has broken (not likely), one of the retaining clips that hold it in place are broken (most likely) or the tab on the door handle assembly is broken (again not likely). to gain access you will have to remove the door panel. You did not say whether the handle you are having a problem with is the interior or exterior but to remove the door panel you will need to have the door open, you might want to purchase a Haynes or Chilton manual for your car to get the proper instruction if you have never removed one before.

Door handle outside passenger wont open door . but it does open from the inside.

The outside door handle may be broken or may have become disconnected from the rod that allows the door to open. Sometimes the ther is a plastic clip that connects the rod to the door handle and could be broken any parts store will have replacement clips. Whatever the problem is, the door panel will have to be removed to be able to inspect the condition of the door handle and parts attaching to it.

I have a 2-rear door 2002 Astro. The door handle has broken and I cannot open the doors. Can I remove the handle assembly from the outside, and what parts do I need to make the replacement?

You need to open the door to remove the handle, ask a locksmith to open it with a 'slim jim' then once it is open you can remove the broken handle assembly. Once removed you can see what you need to replace.
