kmb4701 Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 I just fixed my door today. (It would not open from the outside.) It required me removing the interior trim. I was very cautious while doing this. Now, when I hit my lock button on my key, the doors lock - unlock - and then lock again finally making the beep noise. It will not however unlock using the key button. I can lock it fine from the inside and use the key to manually unlock it on passenger side. Is there something I should go back into my door and look for? If so what is it? Thanx kbrown 96 es300 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way was it difficult removing the panel to repair the door? My front passanger door has the same problem, my mechanic fixed it, but it broke again in the same day because he didn't replace the part just "fixed" it.

Search the forum keywords "broken door" I know there r at least 2 very detailed tutorials on how to do it yourself. I bought the replacement clips from advance auto parts. They're called door lock rod clips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
