Rear Door - 2.4 TD SSR-X 1992

[jbriers]

Hi there

Have done a stupid thing & managed to close the rear door on my surf while the door catch cocked halfway.
Having taken the panel off of the rear door, I was able to free the lock mechanism, but noticed that a small coiled brass coloured spring (about size of 5p) has worked loose from somewhere and I am able to close the rear door, but not open it, unless I manually release it through the open panel.
I've ordered a owner's manual, but that won't arrive for another 7-10 days!!
Any help/pointers pppppllllease !!!!!

I've never looked inside a surf door to be honest, but is the handle loose at all? There's normally a cable that runs from the handle to the release mechanism and it may have jammed.
