Hi all, My2004 Freelander rear passenger door card locked when I made an attempt to repair the door card with one motor working. The funniest thing is inside door handle cable detached from card. The door card catch under rubber lining is up shows the lock open. I can't get access to the 3 screws to remove door card. Now the door permanently locked. Please any ideas how to release the lock. Thank you in advance

Hi,

Use you hands to open the lock manualy,
If you have a spare lock, look how to open it.

Hi Thank you. Tried moving the accessible bits. After trying all mechanical bits , doubting any Electric lock motor holding it. Tried central locking fobs number of times to release. Don't have a spare one. Let me try again. Thank you.
 
Hi Alteredtech, Tried every mechanical way to unlock . All failed. As the cable came off from interior unlock handle, cannot reach that part manually behind the door lock box (such a nasty place). It seems outside door handle and inside door handle connected to the same mechanism. The central locking electrical part pulls the lever. My last resort will be the hard one, remove the door from hinge side by removing the hinge bolts and lift the door out and pull or shake it out it out. Is there any other way less traumatic? Any other way please?
