What was the purpose of drilling the hole and adding the washer?

Really bad filming

What is the right position, explain show in your video it would help with your algorithm bro . Halfway is not the way go all the way

So which way does the lever need to be (w/spring) in or out to open door?

I got my door opening and closing then I put everything back together and closed the door and now I'm back to square 1.

I managed to get the door open today. I think the handle had the rod in a bind. A lot of banging and prying with screwdrivers worked enough that it popped open. Now a happy camper :)

2010 Camry won't open from inside or out. How do I get it open. Rods still in place and connected. Manually pushing the rod down moves the lever on actuator but still won't open. Tried all I know except a saw. :(

Dude, this video is pretty useless without the sound... It just shows you pointing at the battery...

How did you get the door panel off if the door won't open

How did you get the door open in the first placr?
