Dodge 3500, quad cab, 05, Drivers door lock jammed.

Nov 10, 2007 4 Replies

My truck has the drivers door lock jammed in the lock position. I can open the door from the inside only. The lock button is firmly stuck down. Someone told me these are magnetic and it is possible a faulty electrical connection. Is this possible?



Thanks in advance for any help. Matt



Does it unlock manually with the key?

If it's anything like the 01 I just worked on there is a LOT of plastic in the door latch/lock assembly and some of it looks easy to break. The inner knob actually moves a plastic tab into position that blocks the latch. If that broke it would cause this type of problem.

yeah the one i just did on my '99 van was a convoluted plastic nightmare.. one itty bitty piece of plastic broke off and rendered the door un-openable.
