2003 f 150 xl, manual, 4.2l, closed door the other day now neither handle, door edge, and interior, will open rear door of super cab, thought I would check before I start taking apart used this forum when I had to replace my manifold isolator bolts a couple of years ago

 

Check the linkages.

BTW: Welcome back!

 

Usually, what happens is the plastic end of the cable housing breaks and the cable can't pull the latch. Don't buy the replacement cables from Ford. You'll be wasting your money because they will break again.

Watch this video about how to repair cheaply.

I relinked the video for you so it would embed.

 

Thanks that's so cool

 

These guys will fix the broken ends. The first door takes about 20 minutes. The second one takes about 10.
