    Hey mate, I need to replace my Door Release Cable. Can I replace this without needing the T40 and removing door lock?

    You will be able to do it without removing the lock. There just isn't very much space and is definitely a lot easier if you do remove it but you should be able to get in there anyway

    I've just had to replace corsa D passenger door release cable due to the cable snapping where the hook is crimped to the cable. This video was really helpful. If you are just replacing the cable you don't need to push/disconnect the outer door hand rod and white plastic retainer to completely remove the lock. Just remove the three bolts holding the lock to the door and the electrical connecter. This should allow you to swing the lock out slightly inside the door panel and give you enough room to remove the broken cable and insert the new one. I suggest when inserting the new cable put the entire cable inside the door cavity so it's relativity straight which will make it easier to insert the cable end shaped like an L into the lock lever and then snap in. Re attach the electrical connector and lock using the 3 bolts and then the cable hook to the inner door handle as in the video.

    I don't sorry. I think the only way to sort it is the latch on the front so maybe try forcing that with something

    I can't say iv ever looked at the back doors but I imagine it will be the exact same concept. Does it not open inside or out? As it's two different parts of the mechanism so usually one side will open up

    There is 2 different cables to the lock. One going to the outside and one to the in. It's rare that the door won't open from atleast one side (in/ out).
