Help! I was replacing the small plastic piece that connects to the metal rod in my rear door. While doing so I latched the door while it was open and now I can’t open the latch in order to close my door. Any advice on how to open the latch manually so I can close my door?

Push the button like your going to open the door and put a screwdriver or something big in the hole to the right of your finger and push forward ( to the left ).
