This is usually the door interlock wearing out, and not returning to normal quickly enough after spinning. Search on YOUTUBE for videos of how to replace one, it usually requires the door gasket to be un-clipped from the outer front panel area (behind the door). There are a lot of parts suppliers here if you need help: http://www.letsfixit.co.uk/html/appliance_spares.html or HERE for a good video. Hope this helps, TD.

Opening mechanism inside front door not working - How do I get door open?

Parts are available at a salvage yard. Getting the door open is going to be your problem "unless" you pull the seat out and have room to take door panel off to open the door with the mechanism manually.

I have a 1999 Suzuki Grand Vitara, The backdoor is unlocked but it won't open when you squeeze the handle. Is there any way that I can get the backdoor open without having to take it to a dealer?

it sounds to me like the linkage inside the door may have come off. you have to remove the door panel that is if you can open the door from inside. if not you may be able to open the door with a slim jim. no matter what you have to get the door panel off to fix your problem. that can be a task if you can't open the door.

96 vw passat door problems. driver side door wont

Call me 1-336-835-2180 10am-11pm 7 days a week eastern. Ask for R.C. and I'll be glad to tell you what all it takes. If you look at the other doors that will open you will notice a lever on the side of the latch it will release the latch. with the door open flip the latch and open it so you can see how it works. Also you can take the door panel partly loose. You will not get all the screws out. You can get enough out to pull the door panel out and reach into the door, pull the rod from the door handle and open it. Once the door is open there is a torque bit screw in the end of the door that holds the outside door handle on take it out, pull the door handle out and you will find a pin out or broke in the door handle. Take a handle on the door that works so you can see the difference. To do the back door on a 4 door you have to take out the interior panel that the top holder of the seat belt goes through to get to the screws in the end of the door panel just to get the interior door panel off to reach in. You can replace the rool pin with a screw, but be sure it's tight because it will back itself out and you'll have to do it all again. Been there and done that. Ha Ha. If you need more than this just call. I'm in North Carolina.

Drivers door does not open

Do you have triple A membership? if you have or your friend has it, you can call the triple A to open the door for you, it will cost you nothing.

Because there is a plastic clamp hold the bar connected to the door opener was broken or loss.

If you don’t have AAA membership, if you do not want to call Lock Smith, you can make a flat metal tool, just like one foot stake measurement , it should be around 18” and cut the front part like a C hook , shot from outside window near the handle, try several times see if you can hook the open bar from inside the panel, if you touch the inside handle bar, just pull it up, the door will open.
