Default Driver's door latch removal

I should be able to get some photos up next weekend, it has been raining most of the weekend.
The car has a few problems one is with the drivers door lock which on the dash display say the drivers door is open. Managed to get the door panel off and someone has un-plug the door latch, so I plug it back in and for a minute I thought all was well, drivers door lock on the key fob and with the key ok. It also operated the O/R door locking ok, but when I tried the N/R door it open and the alarm when of, I then had to sort out how to turn the alarm of which only works on the key fob button. So I am back to square one with the door latch un-plug. I can get most of the latch assembly loose I cannot seem to work out how to get the last bit done which is the back of the outside handle I have got one long screw out next to where the key fits but I cannot work out what is holding it in place at the front end of the outside handle. Anyone got an idea?

I've moved this question from your Intro thread to the S-Type section.

More members with the same model will see it here.

Well I finaly got my door and central locking problem sorted, I had to replace the drivers door module and not the door latch. I managed to get a second hand one off Ebay, it has solved the main problem which was locking all the doors with the key and I no longer have a dash warning saying the drivers door is open. I do have a new problem which is the press button key fob now will not work, is this because I need to get it re-code for the new door module anyone know about this or have I just go another duff door module. Also for some odd reason my faulty code reader will not work on the car the reader works fine on my other car. Anyone have any thoughts on that?

thanks for your help
