Rear Door Won't Open

[cal_cgg]

Hey all, last weekend some tiprat smashed my stageas rear windsceen. Ive had the windscreen replaced and its all good now so thats not the issue, but i think some glass may have fallen down and maybe got caught in the door release or something and now i can't open the rear door.

Just wondering if anyone has any ideas how to fix it or a way to get the interior lining off the back?

Any help would be much appreciated, cheers.

i remember when i had mine smashed i had to pull out all the rear trim to pull it out.

did u do it? or there place?

does auto close work? and does it feel locked ? ( eg. the handel is weighless) or does it feal like its being pressured?

^{Nah it was covered by insurance and it got changed while i was at work. Got no auto door and it is deffinately unloocking because you can feel the mechanism getting disengaged.}

^{I think i might just need to clean the glass out but im not really sure what the actual problem is. I had the locksmith have a quick look at it today and he said it was trying to open but there was maybe something jammed in there and stopping the latch opening.}

So its not able to open at all hmm.., if you push from inside too will it open? Ull really struggle to get it out if u cant open it up,,,

Mine did the same, the handle had come off inside. I had to take the handle off from the outside, the trim and then unbolt the handle to get the lever. The trim is held on with 2 clips, u can get them off while its on the car, but it may break.

this may sound a bit silly, but lock the doors then try opening the rear as my central locking went out of sync once and the rear would open when the car was locked and not open when the car was unlocked, it sorted itself.
