My drivers door doesnt lock..
When i had the door trim off and the door shut, the little bit that sticks out that the lock goes over, it doesnt go all the way down. Which stops it from locking. I tried smaking it down with a hammer, it worked, but then when i locked it and unlocked it, it just got stuck again. Any help or ideas? Thanks

haha hammer ftw
Pull the door card off and see whats happening, shouldnt be hard to figure out

Hammer kinda worked!! didnt fix it tho. Door card? whats that? I had a good look at it, i cant figure it out tho... It that tab bit that sits under the thing that the outter handle pushes down on, its like a see-saw. But a really fat guy is on one side and wont play fair haha

Door card = Inside door trim, usally vinyl

Try a little lube, silcone spray??? may just be seized up

Is the problem inside the door or the lock mechanism itself ?
cheers

ill try a little spray. Its really stiff tho, like i cant move it with my finger, needed a hammer. Its the inner latch, not the lock itself.

hammer.......
try the lube befor smashing it with a hammer you will only break it doing that the lube should loosen it up fine for you.
I have had bolts/screws that are seized a little silcone spray on them give it a minute and they loosen up works for me.

righto, thanks. Shall give it a go.
