You must pull off the rear interior panel and manually release the mechanism. It can be difficult and cumbersome. Be certain to not break the plastic!

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.
