door latch

[capnjoe]

My driver side door has been hard to open for a bit now. The fault appears to be in the latch mechanism behind the door panel. Any words of advice before I attempt to take apart and lubricate it? From the outside it looks like three bolts and it should be in my hand. I've had the door panel apart too many times to work on the power window so that part of the job is straightforward.
Cheers, Joe

Check the rubber door sealing first, ít's possible that it gets folded at the edge of the doorpanel.

No, it's really the latch! You can actuate it without closing the door and it's very hard to move, and unlike the other side.

OOOH when are you working on your door? I really need to take a look at what the inside is suppose to look like... Ill even drive my Scorp over to Annopolis to get a closer look!
