My driver door doesn't open from the outside and I've been told that most likely the plastic cam is broken. I checked the tangs on the flapper and they are not broken. I've done a search here but can't find a replacement thread for the cam. Is there a thread and could somebody point me to it? If not, can someone explain the process?

Thanks,
Kevin

oh and my pass side door does that same thing that the handle it self is smooth and no broken parts but when on the car it is hard to get the door to open ... I figured it was the little peice inside the door that the slider pushes needed lube but it didn't seem to do much...

Once again, clean up the latch parts. Also did you take the doors off for any reason? Because this may have messed up the door alinement with the door post that is in the door jamb. You can adjust the post by loosing the phillips head screws.

Let me know.
