side door jammed shut

Post by neepboy » Wed Jun 04, 2008 9:20 am

sliding door appears to be jammed shut. It's showing as unlocked, the knob pulls up and down with a reassuring clunk, the exterior and interior handles move but the door refuses to open...any clues from the bongo bretheren??

Hi,
Could be the child proof system jammed.
Take off the inside cover and check it out.
