Can't open door from inside or outside, the door is not dead locked, the key turns in the door easily and unlock/ locks door. I think a linkage or something may have come off, can I remove the door. Card without causing damage with the door closed to find out what's wrong ?

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Drivers door lock inop - cannot open drivers door

« on: 05 December 2010, 22:01:54 »

Hi all,

ok i have a 2003 omega and since the bad weather i now cannot get in and out of my drivers door and have to climb through the passsanger side which is annoying.

When i unlock with the key fob it sometime unlocks the drivers door but i still cant open it, other times it unlock all other doors except the drivers door. When this happens i use the key to unlock it but i still cannot gain access through the drivers door.

Now the last thing i want to do is break the door card from the inside so im hoping i can gain access without breaking the door card as obviously i cannot open the door to take the door card off.


Thanks for your help in advance

If there is oil in the header tank...oil cooler...relatively cheap to fix (garage should charge £300 or so or do it yourself) so for a facelift an absolute bargain at £225 if the car hasnt been driven while over heating and damaged other stuff...

That said, if its taxed and MOT'd then even if you have to change the engine it would still be cheap

Cant see you needing it but I have a decent 2.5 engine from a manual car if it comes to it

Hi first of all thanks for the quick response !.

I am a time served mechanic for ford so hopefully it is just the oil cooler. has thier been any problems with headgaskets on these ?.

i had a 2.0ltr old shape one which had done 213000 miles and was still going strong but mot was due and to much work for it to pass.

i may take that engine off you if worse comes to worse, pm me a price for it.

Thanks Ian.
