Exclamation Door Handle Problem.

Hey, you guys always seem to help me so I got another one for you! I took off my door panel on the driver side to fix my fallen down window.. seemed easy just lined it up and re-glued the window into the regulator. then after I put the panel back on I opened the door and the handle felt kinda.. sticky if you open the handle it does not fling back to the closed position, it works just does not fling cloes smoothly I have to put it back. Is there a spring in there I have to line up or sumthing? thanks for any help!

I'll take a shot...

I have never taken the panels off my exp but have off of lots of other vehicles. Is there a rod connected to the door handle that could be sticking or not quite straight?

I know on the other vehicles I've worked on there is quite the assortment of rods/guides that can get out of whack...perhaps thats what happened when you put it back together.

Good luck!
