How do you open a peugeot 307 nearside front door lock when lock doesnt work?

Answer 1

Type your answer here... Have had to this recently. First I had to get at the small screw at the top of the door that holds the door panel in place, it is at the top left hand side. I got a pair of long nosed pliers on to it and just kept turning it until there was enough to get a hacksaw blade in and cut in half then with the pliers removed the rest. then I removed the door handle. then with a screwdriver managed to force the top of the door panel enough to get into the door lock area ( it is very tight space). The whole panel cannot be removed at this time as there are further screws hidden at the hinge end. If look in you will see a black cover that covers the main locking device. There is a small screw with a hex type screw, remove it. Then it is back to brute force put a large screwdriver type tool between the black cover and the white lock mechanism and force off. Then you will see the main lock. it is a matter of then pushing or pulling at some of the levers. Eventually found the one that released the lock. hay presto the door unlocked.
