Default Car door will not open!

The passenger side car door will not open from the inside. Will open from the outside. Any suggestions on how to fix? With out pay $200+. Thanks in advance...

Take the door panel off and look in there and see how it's made. The linkage between the inside door handle and the latch may be disconnected, but you look and see.

It's a shaky video but gives you an idea of getting the panel off.

I have this issue before. The most likely culprit, which I definitely experience is that the their is a metal bracket with 2 hooks on it with little rubber holding piece on both hooks. This little bracket goes into the door acutuator that connects the opening mechanism to the inside door **** latch. These little rubber piece over time of wear and age fall apart and does not hold the bracket to do its job. I had to do 2 doors like this on my 850.
