I have a problem with the front passanger door lock on my Skoda Fabia Combi 2004. It opened intermittantly for a couple of weeks and now won't open at all. I have a similar problem with our second car, a Fabia Saloon. The problem here is the near side rear door lock. I can usually get this working again by pulling the opening latch on the inside while pressing the remote on the key fob. This could cure the problem for weeks and then the problem returns. However, with the other car, nothing seems to jog it into working again. How do I go about opening this to replace the lock.
