I’m helping SB914 get his passenger door handle to work. The interior pull works fine; the exterior pull will not work unless I push in on the door first.
Took the handle out; it’s ok There’s not a lot of adjustment for the mechanism and i’m Trying to not remove it. Anyone else had this problem ? Attached image(s) |

There's nothing wrong with the handles, or the adjustments. The latch mechanism inside the door is dirty, and the 50 years old grease is like modeling clay. Remove it and give it a thorough cleaning and relube with white lithium grease. Dirty latches are the #1 cause of broken door handles
