Once the door panel has been removed, it is possible to intercept the cable that reaches the lock from the opening handle through a rubber grommet: then unhook the rubber and the cable from the appropriate housings. To remove the lock, simply unscrew the three torx screws located on the side of the door and unhook the cable from the handle. Once the lock has been removed, open that sort of plastic flap that protects the coupling area of the opening cable and check its integrity. Proceed backwards for reassembly, lubricating both the lock and the cable.
