These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

1 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi, Just a small problem, the passenger door won't open from the outside, the window drops but nothing else happens. If anyone can advise how the door card comes off and what to check on the mechanism that would be great :thumb: brumbrum

POST 2 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

p.s not sure if it's anything to do with a recent flat battery?

POST 3Original post

This any help. Seems to be common at the moment. http://911uk.com/viewtopic.php?t=49285

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks David, I've had a look in the daylight, exactly the same problem as me. I took it all apart, reconnected the rod tested a few times, put back together, but now the door wont open from the inside or outside!. Hopefully I can get in via the abag hole whilst the door is shut? :dont know:

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

For the benefit of the thread here is an update: It appears I connected the rod too far down the threaded plastic and it was stopping the mechanism from working. Once I got the door open and reconnected further down everything was fine. I managed to get the door open intially when niether the inside or outside handles would function by removing the door card from the inside, it was very tight!, the wider 'wings' of the gt3 seats and roll cage did'nt help, especially as neither can be removed with only one opening door. I managed to break only one retaining clip on the door card. Once the seat was unbolted i rested it across the center of the carand removed card, hand in the door, remove rod and pull mechanism. and refit. Problem solved! phew!
