![Question](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
I had a passenger in the rear right seat and they couldn't open their door from the inside. The other 3 doors work fine, inside and out. Just the rear right door. I can lock/unlock windows (works as expected), open the door from the outside, etc. Just cannot open the door using the inside handle. Is there a setting/method that can do this or is this a bad module in the door?

Yeah, it's possible to brush up against it and accidentally engage the child safety lock. Reminds me of an Uber ride back from the airport last year. We got to my house and the driver goes, sorry I'm gonna have to open the door for you. It doesn't open anymore from the inside and I have to take it to the mechanic. I showed him the child safety lock and fixed it on the spot. How many people don't know about the child safety lock? I've only owned one 4-door and don't have children, but I know about the child safety lock from my childhood.
