O/S/R Door won't open from inside.

Hi everyone.

Anyone had a problem before with the O/S/R door not opening from the inside?
Opens and locks OK from the outside but when you pull the handle inside there's nothing.
I've checked and played around with the child lock etc, but still nothing.
Even with child lock activated there's no resistance felt in the handle when l pull it, unlike the other rear door when l've checked with that.

I get the impression somethings become unattached inside the door.
Anyone any clues, please.??
Cheers Bob.

It's probably the Bowden cable that has come adrift 0 easy to repair.

It could be the loom though - my nearside rear door locked and wasn't openable from either inside or outside. Luckily, it was done under warranty and involved chiselling off the old lock!!
