[Updated pics] Door won't open from the interior

It is definitely a bracket with a bolt... I'm not sure it has something to do with the door lock...

Now you said the coil might be for a seat..I'm not sure if it has to do with the door lock neither lol.. :S

The lower cable doesn't look connected to the door latch to release when you pull on it.

That spring looks to be part of one of your seats as SleeperSolara said along with the bracket that goes on the rear package tray.

I tried to pull the door latch and I saw the lower cable pulls inside the black plastic cover at the same time...

Why not try taking the passenger door apart and compare the 2 sides?

your cable probably snapped near the door latch (opposite end of the cable from the door handle). Easy fix. Dunno if you fixed it even though its been like 1.5 years; but, you said you've had the issue for 2 years so I thought I'd post. All you do is pop the end of the cable out of the yellow clip near the door latch and pop in the new cable (15-20 bucks + 15 minutes).

Man you know what since I last posted in this thread I just never cared about it. I've been pulling the window down and open from outside since years loll even in the rain/snow. Thanks for your post, I'll get it fixed soon when i have little more time. I can just buy any cable at any hardware store right?

you really can't just use any cable unless you really want to customize it. The reason is that the cable has a stiff cover which snaps into notches at the lock end and door handle end. If you don't snap it in, you will not get proper tension to unlatch the lock. This is the part number 69720B and stock number at village toyota 6971006020. Its like $3.50 for the cable and 10-12 bucks for shipping.

I picked the wrong part the first time and used a paperclip at the door handle end to keep it secured because it was missing the little metal rod piece on one end. It worked fine, but I ended up snapping the plastic clip by the lock end. paperclip > factory plastic clip (figures). I ended up just buying the correct cable in the end. Here's some pics so you get a good idea of how it will go together. Do not judge the condition of my handle. I am replacing it!

Take off this screw
Image

admire how the paperclip offsets the handle like a Bauc
Image

Pull out the power window/lock console and unplug it.

remove screws here and there
Image
Image

I always forget this screw and can't figure out why i'm almost ripping my door off the hinge trying to get the panel off
Image

Unplug your speakers
Image

This is where it clips on the lock end. The handle end is pretty self explanatory.
Image

Reverse directions to close it up and give your window a break.

By the way, i was able to pull out the little rod piece just using my fingers and the plastic clip remained in tact..... for a while lol. You can get the clips at autozone for 2.99. The catch is that you get a mix batch of 4 and only 1 of them is the correct clip. You will not get the clips with the cable from village toyota. You do not need a clip for your handle.

Good luck!

i just hads to replace my interior door handle.. i was opening the door by using the cable, and just pulling it with my fingers, lol. but MAKE SURE that the cable from the door latch is connected into the black plastic bracket that hods your actual door handle. those can break and the cable will just sit loosely in there. i got a new one from a junk yard for 5 bucks.
