Default Door lock just turns round and round.

Hey guys-

Thinking of buying a 95 gsx but the drivers side lock just turns round and round and wont lock. Even when im inside the car and try to lock the door manually it wont lock. You think something inside the door panel fell off?

Please help.

Thanks,

yea could just be a screwed up rod... or i think there's a clip that holds the actual lock in place, and if that's broken or has fallen off than that could also be ur problem

yeah... the clip is a round omega on the insside of the door handle... rods should be connected to the lock barrel and the thingy that moves when you lift the oother thing
