Take the inside door panel off, and the window has to be up. There should be two bolts that are holding the outside handle. Follow the metal linkage to the were the door latch is were the door latches on to. Take the screws/bolts out and you might have to replace it.

can't get passenger rear door to unlock fully unless you hold it open and pull outside handle.
The only way to open the rear passenger door is to hold the lock (inside) fully open and pull on the outside handle. How difficult is this to repair?
