Can't open rear door

[rustymutt]

I can't open my passenger rear door from the inside. When I pull the handle it acts as if it is still locked (or not quite unlocked 100%). However, it opens fine from the outside. I think it opened fine up until recently.

Anyone else have this problem? Anyone know of a solution? I haven't torn it apart yet and wanted to ask the experts first

Thanks

have you checked to see if the child lock is on?

+1 child safety lock, its on the end of the door

I had this happen on my 2001 a short time after I got it. Sure enough, it was the child safety lock.....on both rear doors.

Thanks - that was about the most inexpensive "repair" I've had on the Aurora yet! Maybe it's a sign if good things to come? Nah...

I feel dumb that I didn't figure it out before posting but am smarter 'cause I'll know next time.

Thanks!

Don't feel bad! Haha that happens to me all the time; my car will be making a strange noise and immediately I think the worst until I find out that its really not a big deal, like when I heard a rubbing noise and immediately thought: bearing, bad brakes, etc, turned out that my wheel well lining came a little loose and was rubbing the wheel haha

So, if it doesn't open from the outside, either....?

Then you may have a broken handle. Not sure if they use the same handles on the 2g but I literally just did this fix yesterday to fix my passenger door handle. Works like a charm.

I'm sure the handles are exactly the same. They were on my '98 GTP. I will try it and if it doesn't work, I know a boneyard where I can get another handle.

BTW, thanks for making me look at Amy Schumer. (SARCASM)
