97 Civic Door Problem

Discussion in 'Civic' started by Christopher John Houseman, Oct 9, 2003.

  1. Hello,

    I cannot open the rear passenger door. I believe the child safety lock may
    be stuck, It will not open from the inside or the outside. Does anyone know
    how I might be able to get it open?

    Christopher,

    If the 'child safety lock' is stuck in the half-way position, use a
    folded coat hanger to reach in there and flip it either way so it will
    start working again. You might even have to lower the window and get to
    the switch by reaching in between the window gaskets. Do this trick
    after dark with a good helper to hold the flashlight. Don't yell at
    her... she'll just leave.

    Very few door panels will come off with the door closed, so try the coat
    hanger first.
