Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Suggestion

If what you have exposed of the problem door's innards hasn't allowed you to determine that then you either need to hear from someone with more hands on experience (and there are some door repair DIY around which may be of some help but I do not have any links to any) then all I can think of is as I mentioned earlier is to disassemble the other door just enough to learn how the door latch linkage works and where you can get to it to work it manually.

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.

Nothing specific. My general advice would be to expose enough of the door's innards and find the mechanical link to the door latch release and manually work this to unlatch and thus open the door. If you can't determine this from what you have exposed you might have to remove the other door's panel and expose its innards and have that as a reference.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

yes, but how to easiest reach the mechanical link?

If what you have exposed of the problem door's innards hasn't allowed you to determine that then you either need to hear from someone with more hands on experience (and there are some door repair DIY around which may be of some help but I do not have any links to any) then all I can think of is as I mentioned earlier is to disassemble the other door just enough to learn how the door latch linkage works and where you can get to it to work it manually. I would suspect you can reach in with some kind of T-shaped rod with a handle at the T end and a hook at the other and open the latch. I've seen techs do this when for instance my Turbo's engine compartment lid wouldn't open. A plastic wedge was used to make a gap between a tail light and the bumper and this gave the tech enough room to insert this tool (I described above) into the body and reach the engine compartment latch cable and manually release the latch and open the engine compartment lid.
