has any one tried removing it. I need to remove it to replace it as it has broken for some unknown reason as i never use it.

i have removed the door card, removed part of the window runner and removed some of the metal which covers the locking mechinism, but i cannot get the lock out, do i need to remove the exterior door handle, if so how do i do tht. so basicly im stuck now and it is really gettin on my tits :evil: :evil:

any help will be much appreciated as i dont want to have to take it to a main dealer and pay them the ÂŁ100+ tht they want to fit it.

Cheers

Cheers for that but i have alread printed tht one off but couldnt work out how to get the door handle off, i undid the grub screw and it loosened it but then i couldnt get it any further to actually removing it.

thanks

:partycheer: :partycheer: PROBLEM SOLVED!!!!!!!! :partycheer: :partycheer:

I adjusted a couple of things, and possibly got a bit angry with other things and in the end managed to fix the existing lock tht was on the truck, the same lock tht nissan said needed replacing coz you cant fix them. so tht has saved me having a separate key for the passenger door.

Thanks

after removing the grub screw the part of the door handle that the screw retains pulls out and then you are left with the actual spung handle part this slides forward as it has like locating pegs that lock it in place but needs quite a tug to move it then it just feed out of the door panel from the outside..

Glad you got sorted mate, a Nissan mechanic once told me there is a pin in the lock mechansim, that needs tapping down if it stops working, did you see anything like that? :wink:
funny u should say tht, i did see a pin sticking out in there that i did push in, but im not sure whether or not it was to do with the lock or just the door handle.

Wot amazes me is tht it went into a nissan workshop to be fixed and they said it needed a new one, but i have managed to fix it myself. so makes u wonder whehter they were tryin to make a quick profit or not, but oh well im happy now, its all fixed.

Thanks very much for the advice and info

i have got this far and cant figure how to get the barrel out there is a piece of plastic in the way and dont know how it comes off any help????
 
have looked at the manual and whilst it says what to do it does not say how.?

on the back of the barrel lock is a piece of pink plastic that has to come off, buthoe is an absolute mystery, so i have put it back together so the door locks and will have to have another go tomorrow if i can find out how to take it apart... :( :x

Yep exactly where i got stuck, it was that bit of plastic i was getting angry with when something went click and i then gave up, but before i put the door back together i tried the lock and it worked, so i dont know what i did tht fixed it as it could be a combination of things.

Is your door lock broken or what is it you are trying to do?

Cheers

its a right pain.... i need to change the whole lock cos the central locking actuator is on its way out, so have to get the door handle out to disconect all the cables and such like.

needless to say i am a bit peed off, cos all the rest is easy.... :evil:
 
well thats 2 evenings now i have tried to get this dam lock out and still no joy...!!!!!

talk about annoyed, have put it all back together and given up for now......

it has to come out somehow but am fooked if i know how... :x :x :x :lol:
