[DML] Re: stuck door -- but just one...

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Adjust your Nader (door striker) bolts.

DeLoreans doors have two door latches. If only one Nader bolt engages,
the door won't reopen. Happens to me when I close the door too softly.
Then it's time to remove the door panel and manually pull whichever
linkage engaged.
