cant open door
I have a 2002 honda accord 4 door and my left rear door wont open it was locked with the child protection switch on , and the outside door handle dose not work. what can i do to get door to open?
Five options I can think of...
- Pull the door panel off (it's possible, I've done it before) and move the rod up to open door.
- Use a slim jim for anywhere from 20 minutes to 20 hours trying to pull the rod up to open the door. I'm pretty good at this, I would go this route, but if you've never done it before, don't even try it.
- Break the outside door handle, stick your hand in there and pull the rod up. This will probably require an hour or two worth of drilling and chiseling.
- Pay someone else to do it.
- Last option... https://honda-tech.com/forums/general-discussion-debate-40/so-dont-buy-vw-2684546/ . I'm sure that method would work with your car too.
