Has anyone replaced door handles recently? With out going into too much background, I changed both the exterior and interior handles. Now, with the door panel on, I can't get the door open from the inside. Is there an adjustment somewhere in the door that will take a little slack out of the rod connecting the handle to the unlocking mechanism?

What happens if you pull back on JUST the lock tab?
Does the door open? One of my handles has too much slop to open the door from the inside with the regular handle, but it opens of you pull the lock tab instead. Youll find that the longer handle just pulls the lock handle after about 75% of it's travel. |
