159 rear door won't unlock

Recommended Posts

happened out of the blue last week - all other doors working fine. first time it happened, it wouldn't open from the outside but my daughter opened it from the inside. since then it won't open from inside or out. any ideas? :Confused:

Is the door unlocking?

 

Is the childlock on?

 

I suspect a rod has disconnected itself inide the door or the locking motor is jammed, seen both occur on a few 159s

Only ever had that problem on my 75,

 

became very adept at taking the rear seat squab out and removing the door panel on the offending, closed door.

on my old 147 the rod inside the door came off so you could open it from outside but not the inside. took the door card off and fiddled about with all the bits which fell out at the same time and put it all back together and it was fine after that. i think somebody had pulled the handle too hard from the inside and dislodged it all.
