Fix the driver's side door interior panel in Mazda Tribute SUV?

The interior driver side door latch no longer works. I suspect the linkage inside the door has broken or come apart. I need to know how to disassemble the door panel to gain access to the door latch mechanism.

Is this a good question?

Tom, you forgot to tell us the year of your vehicle. This should work for you "1. Remove the door sail panel. If equipped, disconnect the power mirror electrical connector. LH side shown, RH side similar. 2. Open and remove the door handle finish panel. Pull the door handle outward to fully access the door handle finish panel. 3. 4. 5. 6. Remove the door handle screw. Remove the door inside handle screw. Remove the 3 door trim panel screws. Remove the door trim panel. Pull outward and then upward on the door trim panel. Disconnect the electrical connectors. 7. Remove the door handle from the door trim panel. Disconnect the electrical connector. Press the 2 retaining tabs while pushing the door handle from the door trim panel. Remove the door handle from the door trim panel by pulling it back through the door trim panel. 8. To install, reverse the removal procedure." from [http://Mitchell Repair Information Company,|here]
