Passenger dcor on 99 740iL was opened "a bit too far", tried to close it, applied a little extra force (not a lot), and it closed in a somewhat sticky or draggy manner. The passenger door lock electronics has been out, with the PD locked, so that IN THE PAST we have had to pull the PD handle on the inside to open it. Now, that doesn't seem to work, and can't open the door.
Ideas??????????

What's a PD handle?

You driving P. Diddy's car? Is that the PD handle?

You know he prefers "Sean" now, right? He prolly wouldn't 'preciate you draggin up the "P. Diddy" bit. It's so last year.

opens the door. Even in the past, when the door would remain locked, even when pressing the lock/unlock button from the inside, or on the key.
Now, trying to open the door from the inside doesn't work.
