Rear door lock jammed shut, no luck opening it
Of course, here they are. PNs: RHS - 5J7839016A LHS - 5J7839015A The red arrows showed what has opened the door, in the completely busted one there was a metal rocker that did the job. on the one that looks almost intact I needed to only dislodge that plastic with not much to be able to pull the handle and open the door.

Rear door lock jammed shut, no luck opening it
After receiving a mental guidance from my youngest and most enthusiastic helper (only 10 years old) I have reached out for the angle grinder and managed open up a flap to brake the door locks in a way that they released the latches. Now I am looking for couple of fully equipped doors, no colour preferences.

Rear door lock jammed shut, no luck opening it
Developments from today. No current drawn, I have upped the voltage to 62V from my bench power supply. While I was entering and exiting to the rear seats to work on it the opposite (LHS) door lock failed, motor noise present on both locking and unlocking. Tried all for the past 1 hour, to no avail. I am tired and irritated by this development. I am considering scrapping this vehicle, no MOT station will pass this car with two doors not opening... Thank you all for trying to help. I am done with it.

Sorry for me being stupid but please elaborate on "clouthing". I am all ears for ideas.

I will get my bench supply to the car and try, hopefully tomorrow if it is dry. Forgot to mention that from my first attempt I have cut the wires to the motor so I do not damage the controller.

12.3V from a Li-Ion battery pack. At some point it stopped taking current, I am sure the motor is dead.

Rear door lock jammed shut, no luck opening it
Hi, Yet another post about busted door locks. I have acquired a 2007 roomster 5J with this issue present, I have never seen this rear o/s (right hand side) door been able to open. I have read about it all and tried it on the poor door latch. I have tried without luck: Trickle charging the battery to get as high as possible voltage to the door lock motor. Together with this I have tried tamping and trying to lock/unlock from the buttons next to the gear liver. No motor sound. Applying 12V directly to the latch motor to pin1 (blue/yellow wire) and pin2 (purple/yellow wire) forward and reverse. No motor sound. Tried to manually rock the red rocker on the latch, it feels like spring loaded towards unlock position. This is different from the new latch that I purchased that holds its position for either locked or unlocked. At this point realised that my luck has ran out. Removed the glass and with all my force tried to push the door out hoping that the latch will break. Removed the four bolts from the hinges. The door positioner prevents me from taking the hinged side out of the frame. I have attempted to cut the door in half, not sure what I was going to achieve with this. Broke my reciprocating tool as the door has some reinforced sections. I understood why the fire brigade has that hydraulic powered scissors tool... I have ran out of ideas other than scrapping it. Please help!
