Door handle..?

Does anybody have some bright ideas on how to open a rear crew cab door when both the door handles arent working for some reason?

Not sure if I broke something shutting them up last night or what the deal is.

Not frozen shut. Child lock is off. Clearly unlocked.

Any ideas?

You got a buddy with a truck that you can swap the driver side switch panel out?

i think hes wants you to try a buddys switch in your truck. if it unlocks the doors then you will know that you have a bad switch in your truck.

Oh gotcha. That makes a little more sense I guess, was slightly in a confused moment.

I will give it a shot later today to get away from all the family

Tried to switch out the front door lock switch. No luck. I am not sure how to get the back door door panel off without opening the door (since both handles arent working for some reason). Did something possibly break the last time I shut the door maybe?

this shows you how to do it.


Ford F250 Excursion door panel removal

Seems strange to have something mechanical happen to both doors at the same time?

Well it's only the driver side back door that wont open. It's just that neither the outside or inside handle are working which leads me to believe that the door got slammed and something broke. Not sure. It's a bitch and a half though not being open the door at all.

Once you get that door panel off, you will quickly figure it out.

That's what it's lookin' like. Hardest part will just be getting that reflector off without breaking it and then trying to get at the screw holding the panel on laying laying on the seat with virtually no room.

I would rather have a Ford SD with three doors opening versus any Chevy. Just sayin'
