Locked door lock

Hi,
I have read just about everything on door locks for the D3 but no one seems to be able to tell me how to get the door open to remove the 3 screws on the side of the door to remove the lock. No amount of button pushing combinations will release the lock

Anyone have any ideas on this thanks.

Regards Bob

Hi

On the off chance , a little while ago I discovered is having someone on the inside door handle and using the dashboard unlock button

keep pushing the locking and unlocking button on the dashboard whilst someone else pulls the handle from the inside of the door , had to do it about 5 x times and door unlocked

Wouldn’t be the off side rear door would it Whistle

Apologises if you’ve already seen that Thumbs Up

Hi,
Thanks for the reply gstuart, yes I saw that one. No matter what I try I can not get it to unlock. Funny thing is the rear passenger door stopped unlocking then a week later the front passenger door stopped working. I think Land Rovers were put here to do our heads in.

Regards Bob

Hi

That’s a shame , as both have gone on the same side it wouldn’t be any wire issue / fuse, could it??

Hope u get it resolved

Afraid you've got the worst case scenario=nightmare.
The door card has got to come off Big Cry it will get damaged Big Cry
The will seat will have to come out or moved to enable card removal Big Cry
The door handle has got to come off Censored (retaining screw hidden behind a round black sticker under the door card).
The window has to be taken out to allow access to the lock to open the door Censored Big Cry
First off fully charge your battery, pray and try the above 2 person method several times over a week sometimes they do mysteriously work, if it does do not close the door!
LR charge one hour fixed rate to fit Very Happy Thumbs Up Thumbs Up

That's the easy bit, opening the door when locked is a little harder Laughing

Blimey it must be door week, Whistle

Still can’t believe my rear drivers side door failed whilst having its mot , Censored

Took about 15 x minutes messing around with the dashboard switches and handles then eureka door opened and got the panel off, pheeeew , ordered new actuator assembly

So now got 10 x days for the mot retest , ah nothing like a bit of pressure Laughing

Just been reading up and looks fun to get the actuator out Big Cry
