My 1994 Honda Accord passenger door won't open from the outside but it will from the inside?
The inner link ( plastic ) has likely failed allowing the metal actuating rod to come adrift. Remove door panel and check visually. Ought to see how each handle operates and an easy fix.
The linkage may have come off or the end of the handle is broken off. There's a different linkage for inner and outer.
I'd guess the dohickey is broken or disconnected. Remove the door panel and fix it.
It could be anything from the door outer handle links/rods knocked off by a slim-jim, a bent rod to handle to a broken outer handle.
The inside part of the outer handle has a rod. Very hard to see when it's connected. It should be tucked in the corner to the door latch. You should raise the window half way to 3/4 of the way up to get behind the glass. It has happened to me. What I saw was the little plastic tab break on the lock. That's what allows the handle and latch to work.
Whatever happen, you will have to remove the inner door panel, the links ends and the door latch for the repair/ replacement.
This video will show you how:
- Trunk door latch loose and wobbly, door won't shut? I'm not even really sure what is holding the latch in if there are no screws there? Bough an 03 Honda pilot ex today. Anybody know what kind of screws go in there or whether I can just go to a mechanic or have to go to a dealer? I bought it from a private party
- Check engine light, open door light, and batterie light all came on and won't go off? 2000 Honda Odyssey I already had the altinator replaced it a month old. The batterie almost a year old. Would the belt need be changed or something else?
- Can i get a Door Kit for a 2 door car for my 4 door? I wanna get a lambo door kit for my 2013 honda civic but i have a four door and the one they have is for a two door… So would getting the kit and just using it on the front two doors work?
- 2004 Honda Civic won't lock from the outside? I can lock my doors when I'm inside the car but if the door is open and I press the lock button only my passenger door will lock. When my driver door is shut and I try to manually lock it from the outside the key won't move at all. If anyone can give me some tips on what is wrong or how to fix it, that'd be awesome! Trying to save time and money from going to a locksmith.
