M35 rear door wont open

[samuri]

The rear door will not open . The rear window will open.

From inside the cabin, in the middle of the rear door, is a small compartment. I have removed the cover and tried to push/pull /slide and manipulate 

the small lever inside , but the rear door will still not open. (its very difficult to see inside the space)

 

What am I doing wrong. How much force is required to operate this small lever?

 

Should this lever over-ride any electrical problem associated with opening the rear door ? 

 

My 2002 NM35, has fuses near my right knee. Where do I need to look specifically if there is a fuse problem?

Also the only the rear second sun roof will not work. Is there any connection to the sin roof not working and the rear door not opening?

thanks  in advance.

is there a diagram for the fuse box near my knee assuming that is  where I should be looking

thanks  in advance
