Question
I have a 1988 Chevy Astro Van which runs perfect but the rear doors won't open. The outside handle feels loose and there is no way of opening it from the inside.  What can I do? Can you give me some instructions for opening the doors?  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you,  Debbie

Answer
Hi Debbie,
If a trip to a body shop is out of the question, a trip to a salvage yard might work.
See if they will open a door and remove the inside cover, so you can see the mechanism, and how it works, and that will help you figure out how to get yours open.
