This has never happened on me but my 3rd door wont open.
Its like the rod wont come down.
When I open from the side or inside handle it wont open. Ideas??

I had the interior door panel off but its never done that before.

-1997 supercab 3 door flairside.

 

same happened to mine, the cable was loose, however, the lock system is like a bicycle's break system, it shouldnt take you more than an hour to get it fixed

hope this helps

 

forgot to say: you must remove the plastic cover from the door, to have access to that system and open the door manually, then you can fix it.
