TF rear door not opening from outside
« on: July 17, 2016, 09:01:24 PM »
Advice please.
I completely pulled apart my doors on the TF as part of the rebuild, problem is after putting it back together the rear passenger door will not open from the outside. It works fine from the inside, child lock and button lock work.
Have I made a simple error ?
Has anyone had this issue before ?

if it opens from the inside then it can only be the rod or the linkage joining the two.

All sorted. Had to bend the rod quotes bit but it works fine now.
