My driver side door won't open from inside. It opens fine from outside both in the locked and unlocked state. Has anyone encountered this before?? IF so, please let me know what the fix...

 

does it feel like it's engaging at all?
maybe a cable came off?
Open up the door and check it out

 

No..it doesn't feel like it's engaging..
is there something on the door that comes off for me to check all the cables and where is it located.

 

sounds like the rod is no longer attached to the interior handle.

you need to remove the door panel and check it out. usually there's a little plastic piece that breaks off,

this same thing just happened to my boss's Legend a few days ago

 

Can someone give me an estimate on how much will it cost me to get it fixed from the dealer and a regular mechanic..

 

i'd say its about an hr of labor plus parts, it'll depend on what exactly broke. IMHO you can do this very easy yourself, the door panel has like 5 screws and comes off, from there you'll have a exposed door handle and should see the rod no longer connected to the handle. you might be able to replace the broken plastic part, or get a whole new interior door handle.

 

search for window regulator replacement, that has the DIY for removing the door panel.

Once you're in there, everything is right in front of you, pretty easy to fix.

 

Hey dude

This happended to me.

ALl you need to do is check the door handle. The chrome handle that is inside the door. Take the Black plastic part out and remove it. But i new one. Its usually because it broken piece that doesn't catch the cable.

Good luck

 

Thanks.

So i just need to replace the black plastic handle. Where would i get a new one for reasonable price?? Where did you buy yours from??

 

Thanks too bro I can tick part of my problem off

This same exact problem happened to me last night as I got home from the worst night of work ever!!!

I'm so happy I didn't post another useless thread about this because this was exactly what I was looking for.

Anyways, guess i'm opening the door panel up soon.

 

So... anybody know the exact part I need to get? Or should I just drop the car off at my mechanic?

 

Open it up and see whats broken or why its not opening..then you'll know what needs replaced.

 

orrrr...maybe the door was locked...

 

I guess you right y0.

Ugh. Worst week ever.

 

it's prolly the little plastic piece that connects the handle to the rod, i still have my door panel off so i see all that crap everyday

 

This plastic piece, can you buy it separate at dealership, Honda and /or Acura? I replaced my lock actuator, pretty proud, tougher job than I thought. I have it all back together and I am missing the plastic piece on inside door handle, no idea what happened to it.
