My central locking is not working, the door is shut and will not open even with the interior door handle. how can I fix this??

check the wiring and the linkage on that door .

This worked for me on 2008 Mk5 Golf, after the rear passenger door would not open fro outside or inside.

Hold the inside door latch open and keep it extended, then with the key fob open and close the door locks (still holding the inside latch open). Keep locking and unlocking the door, then it made a kluck and it released.

Contact your door installation service: there's a lock that has to be fixed

I would confer with your Jag dealer on this one. Removing the door panel with the door closed is a real problem and they may have an easy fix without risking damaging anything. From what you say it sounds like the normal door release mechanism is not engaged but that the lock is. All I can suggest is to wind the window down and to do a combination waggling the 'half cocked' internal release handle back and forth whilst at the same time physically unlocking the door lock and/or using the central locking fob; press the door into the door jam at the same time to take pressure off the frame catch.

you"ll have to remove the door trim and replace or reposition the cable/rod assembly that has move out of position not too hard to fix dont worry

If the passenger door has not been opened for some weeks or months, or in icy weather, it is possible that the rubber seals around the door frame will cause the door to appear 'stuck' fast - in this case, a bit of extra force from inside the car whilst pulling on the interior door handle should cause the door to open. Failing that, if the car has electrically operated central locking, when the key fob is pressed to deactivate the central locking does the door lock on the passenger side work as expected? Try unlocking the passenger door with a key, and or pull the door lock button upwards to ensure that the lock has been deactivated. Check for blown fuses.

usually wind down window using torch and sturdy piece of wire or long flat blade scewdriver bend anti theft plate out of way of lock assembly (if still there) and using wire or screw driver move latch on release catch centre bottom area of lock assembly while holding door handle (outer) up to pull door open when you hit the right catch

I assume you mean a 1991 Previa (that was the first year of the model). It is likely you have broken a small spring inside the door that connects the handle to the latch. The only way to tell is to remove the inner door panel (two screws: one under the door handle and one midway along the upper part of the interior door structure then pull out and up).

oliver i'm not sure what model of car you have but if it locks off the central locking and opens from the outside it could be the cable linkage on the rear of the handle. Or at the other end where the cable actually operates the locking mechanism. These Days they are only made of plastice and if pulled on too hard can sometimes snap or the cable can twist and the little crimped end on the cable can come free. This has happened in two of my cars and even in my Mercedes Sprinter Van. Its a quick fix if nothing is broken and the most time taken is removing the interior door panel. You may need a set of Torx bits or screw drivers and a gentle hand to remove this but its worth it in the end.

the assy. that keep therod for openeing the door up is whats wrong worn out needs replacing , yu will have to take panel off to repair though good luck
