1993 Honda Civic LX - Cannot close door
 
There seems to be a problem with my car, the drivers side door will not
close. That thing that locks the door in place is pushed down, and it
will not release. Does anyone have any idea how to push that latch up,
so I will be able to close the door?

I was replacing the door handle, as the car is 14 years old, and some
how pressed in the thing that keeps the door shut, and now that is
pressed it. I cannot close it.

Thanks

Try pushing it back up to the open position (compare with other door) while
releasing the latch from the inside like you were opening the door to get
out.
