Best Answer

If your key will not unlock the door such that you can open it the issue is most likely the cable-spring assembly that the handle attaches to and pulls to unlatch the door is tight due to corrosion or rust. You can lubricate and probably free the cable-spring assembly by squirting a spray lubricant through the gap where the handle goes through the door. Spray through the gap toward the center of the door - the cable spring assembly is about 1/2 inch inside the door. If you need to get into the door from the inside you will remove the top 1/2 door panel first by pulling straight out at the bottom of the panel - 4 clips hold the panel in. The bottom half door panel is then removed by sliding it up about 1 inch to free the hooks that hold it.

How do you fix a broken door latch on a 1999 Chevrolet Blazer?

If the door latch on a 1999 Chevrolet Blazer is broken on the car frame, a new latch might have to be welded in. The old door latch will have to be cut out with a torch. If the latch is broken on the door, a new door might be cheaper than welding in a new latch.
