2015 4Runner - Door Won't Open
Long time 4runner owner and the only complaint I've had about these vehicles are the door locks. Every model i've owned has had multiple issues.
I have a 2015 4runner and the driver side actuator went out. I started the process, removed the door panel, taking out the actuator and opening it up. I put in the new motor, reinstalled panels, etc.
I tried the lock while the door was open and viola! it worked! Great! I got inside the vehicle and tried it out and no issues whatsoever. Then I tried to open the door handle and nothing! I climb out of the vehicle and go to the outside and it won't budge as well.
I checked to ensure the rod for the handle was connected to the acutator housing and after prying the panel open somewhat from the inside, I can actually feel it's in place. My only thought is when I got inside the actuator I messed up a lever or didn't connect it back properly.
So I am stuck. I can't get the panel fully off but can feel around the actuator and inside the door. I can hear the door handle attempting to open from the inside but nothing.
I feel like I am at the point where I am going to have to take this in for service.
Thoughts?
