Jiggle the handle more vigorously fast though not with too much force if you are not getting results.
If this doesn t work then you re going to have to resort to removing the door from the hinges.
Hi this video shows you how to repair a broken door handle caused by a faulty door latch.
Hi guys got a bit of a problem with my drivers side door.
After the car is unlocked it works perfectly fine its just after locking it that it takes two pulls to re open it.
Now take that piece of plastic and try to insert it into the door from the outside directly where the latch is.
Basically when i unlock the car it takes two pulls on the door lever to open it the first one does nothing and then on the second pull it opens.
Spray the mechanism with spray lubricant while you operate the barrel with the other handle.
Pull the handle and rosette off of one side of the door to expose the barrel and spring mechanism.
This is because the issue is not with the door and not even with the control the knob has over the stuck latch.
