I was about to go for a nice drive this morning, got in the Delorean, engine on, closed the door, grabbed the seatbe... wait, where’s the seatbelt? Turn around to look where I’m grabbing and damnit, I closed the door on it. And the door won’t open. (My seatbelt doesn’t spring retract automatically; only when fed into the reel, so when I get in/out if the car it’s dangling loosely. This time it must have swung out into the door closure path).
I wiggled out the passenger side and removed the drivers side upper door card to see the guts. I can lift the handle and the pushrods move, but the door is stuck. The locks are unlocked.
The metal buckle is in a gap- not pinched. The fabric material is what is jamming up the door. I can move the fabric enough to hear the metal part move and clink.
From the outside, there is a gap on the aft seal of the door. I cannot move the aft part when I push down or pull up. There is a gap on the front side as well, and I can move it up/down if I press/pull the door, but only ~1/4”
Help! The doors are like black magic to me. One of the only things I don’t/havent messed with. They did function correctly prior to this, having been sorted out/adjusted by DMCH about two years ago.
