Passenger Door

[xoom04]

my 93 sc400's passenger door wont open from the outside, and the window wont go down past half way. the door pops open when i try to put the window open all the way. i have no idea why my car is doing this, i have never wrecked nor have i noticed any attempts to break in. what could be the problem, and how can i fix it mysef w/o having to go the dreaded dealer?

Most likely the "rod end clip" has come loose. This is a plastic piece that connects little rods inside the door to release the latch mechanism when the handle is pulled. It is probably in the way of the window going down. You will most likley have to remove the door trim panel and look inside it to fix it. Good luck!!
