Inside Rear & Side Door Handles Do Not Work

[melgu]

I have a 2003 Roadtrek 190 Popular. The inside rear and side door handles do not work. The outside door handles work fine.

I think this is more of a mechanical than an electrical problem. I have a problem with the door handles for both the back right side doors and the rear doors not working from inside the vehicle. The doors work fine from outside the vehicle. I would like to know if anyone else has experienced this problem and if it is something that can corrected without having to take it to the shop.

Melgu,

Welcome to the FMCA forum!

From your description, sound like the cam / latch assembly that rotates when you turn the inside handle has failed. They are often made of plastic and the square hole rounds out and is no longer rotating to retract the door locking pin / plunger.

The outside handle is connected to the same link, but that part is activated at a different point on the outer portion.

melgu,

Welcome to the Forum.

Does your Roadtrek have door lock lockouts or child protects on the doors?
