Does the outside handle move at all?
YOu can pop off the Land Rover logo piece on the handle area and you may be able to see something unhooked or jammed. I have heard that spraying WD40 or something in there will work. Not sure in your case. Mike???

I know that's what works for my 96 D1 -- I assume DII's are the same.

Dee,
When you say it is jammed, can you be a little more descriptive. Is the kiddy lock on? This could be the" can of worm " posting of the week.
I would suggest that the only way to resolve your problem would be to pull the inner door panel off, see if you can see what is jammed and either straighten it up, clean it or lube it.
By the way you will have to move the front seat forward to get the rear inner door panel off, take it off easily and don't break any of the clips if you can help it.
Good luck,
Mike J.

The handle is very stiff but is move a little. When it does move I don't hear the door clicking like it wants to open. I'm going to try and remove the logo you suggested and see if I can see something to grab. I let you know in a minute.

OK I taking about my fifth door in the Back where the spear is mounted on..that's the door that is jammed shut. I don't believe that has a kiddy lock on..I even try to go inside and pull the inside handle but door won't move, no clicking sound is heard. I guess I have to pull the door of some how.

ITTTTTT OPENNNNNNN!!! I did what you said took the logo off and mannn there was a LOT of rust there that was causing the handle not to reset it self...I was able to rush it all the way down and that I was able to open it up.. I really have to grease it up later. But anyway thanks to ALL for the HELP.

Good you got it open, I thought you were talking about a side rear door.
Those tail gate latchs will rust up and fail, clean it good and lube it up.
