Can´t open passenger door from inside the car 850

Today I noticed that passenger front door does not open from the inside. Lock actuator appears to be working as the knob moves up and down when I lock or unlock the car from drivers door. It opens normally from the outside when the knob is up and does not open when the knob is down as it should.

Anyone knows what I am up against? My wife is flattered, as I have to get out and open the door so she can get out.

Car is a 95 850.

Thanks

    Hopefully it is just the rod that came loose. You will have to remove the door panel to find out. Don't forget the small phillips screw at the bottom front and the long screw for the speaker.

      Thanks Klaus. I did that today. The linkage between the door lever and the lock is ok. It appears that the problem is in the lock mechanism, as the piece on the lock that is connected to the lever moves but appears not to move anything else in thelock. The electric lock works fine, but the door only opens from the outside. I tryed to take out the two screws that hold the lock mechanism in place by the back of the door, but they will not move and I was affraid to totally strip the torx bolts heads. Any other ideas?
