Hi all, often, but not all the time, the passenger door does not open after unlocking. The thing pops up to show its unlocked but pulling the handle does nothing. From outside it sometimes opens in the third attempt, or if I lock/unlock again sometimes on the first attempt.
Sometimes from the inside it doesn't open at all, no matter how many tries, but other times it opens first time no problem.
Any ideas on how to fix please? I've heard about perhaps resetting the key, how do I do that please? Or something about an actuator.... I would like to try myself to save money, I imagine I will need to take off the door panel, does anyone have experience of this problem or ideas or have links to diagrams please?
Many thanks all!
 
@wezzley, i have the same problem and on multiple doors. Did you ever get a solution on what was wrong and how did you fix it? Thanks
