I have a 99' tl that has the rear passenger door closed/locked and with a seized locking mechanism. Does anyonw know how to remove the door panel with the door closed or how to access the mechanism to be able to lubricate it ?? This happened to my driver side rear door, but I caught it early and was able to get the door open, and use wd-40 / grease to release the mechanism and then lubricate it(been working great for 8 months so far).

Thanks

 

my driver's lock wont open or close w the keypad or switch inside the car the only way i can open it is with my key or if i pull it... any advice for me? sorry i cant help you

 

its not the child safety lock is it?

 

I've got the same problem except my driverside rear door, will not open from the inside or outside.... and i'm not able to check to see if the child lock is on, but wouldn't it open from the inside if it was enabled?


bump for a fix....

 

nahh it sounds like it trys to open but its stuck or something

 

If you plan on working on the car yourself, I would suggest buying the service manual for the car. It gives great step by step directions on how to remove and replace just about everything on the car. It can be found at www.helminc.com
