Anyone know what is going on? The door handle just randomly stopped working from the inside only. I have a video where you can hear the sound cues which are different from a working one to the "broken" one

#

there's no clicking after fully opening the handle

#

I should point out that the car had been sitting in the rain for hours, no idea if this is even relevant...

part out?

#

just the inside handle doesn't seem to work, by the sound I can assume something inside of the mechanism disconnected? since I can hear that a click is missing comparing the sounds

#

but I don't know really

Did you remove the door panel?
The linkage from the door to the latch probably disconnected somehow

#

If you're lucky it's just a matter of putting it back in the clip and reassembling the door panel

#

is it the rear or front passenger side door?

#

cause if its the rear door, probably has the child safety switch on

🤷‍♂️

#

My first thought was software sided but doesn't seem to be the case

#

which is stilk weird because legit nothing happened to the car, I mean, yes it rained but cmon...

yeah, usually the child lock switch is on the individual door, doesn't lock both
