On P38’s... If this happens, the only way to open the door is to break it with a long screwdriver and a BFH. The whole latch assembly will break apart then replace the latch. Be carful not to dent the door skin.

can you just try opening one of the other doors and get out that way? I would be so frustrated if i'd been trapped in my rover for as long as you.
yeah i was ranting, i apologize for that, it just seems that everything is dependent on me getting the door open!
i GOT THE DOOR OPEN, yeah yeah i GOT THE DOOR OPEN!! (IT WAS THE LOCK, IT WASN'T FULLY ENGAGING!!!!
noW, I GOTTA PEE!!!!!
hey that great!
can you post and tell us how you got it open and how you figued out the lock was at fault. Just in case one of us runs into this issue it would be great to have the solution paired up with the problem.

ok, i took the otherside apart to see how the lock works, I noticed that there is a "hinge" in the lock, fully "flat" it will unlock, hinged just a little it won"t open, which mine was, just a tad. so i got the jack handel, after i tore "EVERYTHING OUT!" and a hammer, and gently taped the "hinge part" flat. this allowed it to work properly, Neadless to say i took it out cleaned it up, really well, and put some teflon on it! I can't find any pictures or learn the name of the parts, so sorry. Or did you mean how i peed? well i had to use the shower, becasue i had to go! with my pants around my ankles, i let it rip!! Darm super big gulps!!!!
Now can anyone tell me where i put the duck tape, to get the window in........

In the Seattle area, just take it to Gord'n at LaMorna Motors. It will take 1 hour and 10 minutes. He's a great guy, but don't expect him to tell ya how he did it.
