I am in the same boat. I suspect the internals need dismantling. Puma 110" SW

I’ve just been out and done a little bit of investigation. It opens fine from the inside. Guessing it is whatever the outer handle attaches to, it’s just not quite moving things enough.
Is there a known easy repair for this? Assuming if I disassemble the mechanism, I might be able to put thing a back in the right place? |

Child locks work the other way around, i.e. stops it being opened from the inside. Darren

Worth squirting a bit of lube inside it, they just get tired and worn out though.

Tried stripping apart, cleaning and lubricating. Rear handle still not providing enough movement to fully disengage latch.
Ordered new part from Masa 4x4. They’re not super speedy are they! |
