Door Handle Problem

[paula]

I take it you can open the door from the inside? if so it sounds like the pin that holds the outside handle has snapped. The lower part of this activates the latching mechanism. They're impossible to get in the uk without getting shafted. Fleabay sells the pins for a tenner or so. I got mine from Poland although I did have to dress them a little with a file as they're fairly rough cast. If you're fairly handy and have some general tools it takes around 45 mins. You will need some torx bits! Any ? ? ? give me a shout. Do a fleabay search for 'citroen berlingo door handle pin' there are 3 listings now.

Hi, thank you so much for your help. Yes I can open it from inside so what you suggest sounds like the solution. I'm away in Arran on holiday at the moment (with Berlingo) so will definitely do what you suggest when I get back (or get my Dad to do it I should have said!):colors:I'll let you know how I get on, thanks again, P
