Land Rover Repair: P38 passenger and rear door are locked from both sides, latch pin, facebook


Question
what is the proceedure to release the passenger door from being stuck? Apparently, the rear door is linked to this problem! Can you help?

Answer
If both doors on the right side are jammed shut you have a serious problem.  I actually don't know how to instruct you except to say you can buy a day's access to the factory service site www.landrovertechinfo.com where they describe a procedure to free stuck doors.  They have illustrations showing where to reach in and trip the latch.  I've tried that, though, and it does not always work.  You may end up damaging a door panel to get access to the rear door, opening that, and removing it so you can cut the latch pin to open the front door without damage.

Good luck with it
