Mates,

 

Yesterday, my passenger side door lock release just stopped moving (92 998 Japanese spec).  I try to push it to unlock from the inside but something is strongly resisting.  Lock opens and closes fine when I use the key from outside though.  And the locking lever itself seems to move smoothly when I manually lock it with a screwdriver w/ the door open.  I'm gonna take the door panel off and try to see what's locking it up, but just wondering if anyone could give me some advice as to what to look for / how to fix this.

 

Cheers in advance!!!

Update...this seems to have fixed itself today.  Odd.  It was pretty dam stuck before and I didn't want to push any harder out of fear of something breaking inside.  However, I'd still like to take off the door panel and lube up whatever needs lubing or tighten whatever needs tightening so that it doesn't happen again.  Any ideas what would make an inside door lock release frozen like that?

 

Cheers!
