Hello all,
On my Disco 1 after unlocking all the doors, door lock plungers pop up normally, but on the rear driver side when I go to unlatch the door the plunger pops down thereby the door won’t unlatch to open. I have to pull the plunger up fully to open and stays that way until the next lock/ unlock cycle. On the tailgate the plunger pops up but pops down (mechanical) when trying to unlatch the door. I have to insert my key and hold the lock in the unlock position in order to open the tailgate each time.
Is this situation a latch adjustment or latch spring replacement?
Thanks
Disco 1 door latch issue.

It is a small little circular spring. I have a few extras in east van if you need.

Received some new latch springs. Will start the arduous process of replacing the springs. Thanks again.

I will fully document the procedure once I get time to. Still working as I’m considered an essential employee.
