Nissan Repair: Driver side door, latch assembly, scraper

Question
I have a 94 nissan xe pickup and I cannot open the driver side door from the inside or outside.

Answer
Hi Ken -

First of all, I apologize for the late delay. My computer has been down for the last few days.

Seems to me you have issues with the lock mechanism, whether the linkage or the lock itself, it has to be investigated. If it does not free up by spraying some lubricant in the lock area, then we need to get to the latch assembly.

Remove the door panel. Be careful not to damage the panel, use a scraper to unsnap the bottom, and there also should be some screws. Remove the wiring for the window, and the link for the door handle. Once that panel is removed, you can get to the lock. Try working it by hand directly.

:Let me know your results -

thanks and aloha
