Passenger door wont open! BMW 1 Series
Discussion
Would appreciate some advice on my 1 series BMW 2020.
The passenger car door stopped opening all of a sudden. Both indoor and outdoor handle pull out and seems to unlock the latch but the door remains shut. It then magically started working again about a week later but now again has failed.
Having done some research i wonder whether it is the car door/lock release cable that may have come loose? Does this sound likely and how easy would it be to replace (given the door wont open)

Thanks for your reply
I think the mechanical lock is only on the driver door but i will check
Both unlocking the door with the key and pulling the interior door handle makes the latch pop up (indicating the door is unlocked) but pulling the handle (both inside and outside) doesnt then do anything
