My rear door handle will not open from the outside and the child lock is on so I can’t open the door from the inside. Please someone help me out here is there any way to open it? Thanks!!

 

Turn the child lock off from the inside and then you can open it from the inside. There is a switch on the inside door edge.

My rear passenger door won't open from the inside with the child lock off but will open from the outside. Who knows???

 

YOu have a problem. If your handle outside will not work and your door is closed with the child lock on, the only thing i can think of is to cut a hole in you door panel and try to pull the cable or rod. I havent pulled my rear door apart to see what the configuration is. Some how the rod to your handle either came loose or broke

 

Might be a silly question, but is the door unlocked? The only reason I can think of as to why you can't open it from the outside...

 

Yes it is unlocked. I think I am going to have to break something to be able to open it I am also wondering if the window is down I can do anything that way?

 

Hmm, that's a good one. There is no lock, and no door pin on the door.

You could prob use a slim jim to open it, but without knowing how the door handle linkage connects to the door lock, you are gonna be fishing blind.

See if anyone has a pic of the door with the panel removed.

 

I'm certain you locked and unlocked all doors several times to try and open from outside... if so, I'd take it to dealer and see if they can get it open without f-ing something up...

 

If his actuator broke, taking off the door panel wont work. All your door handle is doing is pulling on a line to unlock. If the lines broke then taking it off might work. But I believe the outside door handle is its own handle so regardless if the inside one is connected or not the Outside door handle should work

Good luck OP

 

On all cars i have worked on the outside and inside handle are connected to the latch. The child safety just messes with the inside handle. The outside somehow broke or the rod or latch broke or came loose. In most cars the rod usuallly goes down when the handle is lifted. So if you can see down into the door with a flashlight you might be able to shove something down to open it. I have pulled many doors apart as i work in a body shop so that is pretty much ur only hope without tearing up the door panel

 

Also so when you unlock the doors can you hear and see the rear door unlock?

 

I think what happened is the rod connected to the outside door handle came loose or broke. I think I am going to try and go down through the window. Thanks for the help guys.

 

I had an issue about a month ago where the door handle would not open from the outside, then eventually neither would work. The replaced everything and said the lock actuator jammed. Now it is broken again. Driver side rear door, seems to have something to do with the cold, I have an 07 g35x for reference, and there seems to be a lot of problems with other Nissan models having their door handles freeze/break if you poke around online.

 

I would consider taking the other rear door panel off and see what it looks like so you are not fishing totally blind.
