When the door is closed the door handle will not open the door - acts like the door has been locked via the key. I have to reach in thru the vent wing to unlock the door using the inside handle.
I have checked the latch housing and the latch bolt and safety catch are free moving. If I pull the handle with the door open the latch bolt moves as expected. If the door is closed to the outer (first) notch the door will open via the handle. When the door is fully closed it won't open via the handle. This behavior started out as intermittent but is now happening all the time. I think the problem is ware between the flipper on the handle and the release button in the door - is there anyway to build the area up on the flipper?
