during a trip to the west country the side door stopped working; not wanting to touch it while i was away i put it in the garage when i got back, who fixed it by disconecting the microswitch so it operated like a normal van door( no automatic closing.) today when i was out i opened the door but couldnt get it shut until i removed the panel and pulled at the mechanism.. it shut and as i was in a rush i left it until i got home and now it will not open at all .. any ideas?

Usual cure is a well placed thump on the inside of the door It's a fairly common problem, so will show up with a search for side door

the electrics were disconnected i believe .. has anyone hard of the actual lock jamming?

Child lock part of the mechanism causing some sort of jam??

Not jamming as such but certainly going to sleep, usually after a flat battery episode. As in the link that francophile posted up, a well placed & fairly firm thump will wake it up.
