A vehicle door lock (201) and latch (204) assembly whereby a key may be used to lock the door (200) and to prevent rotation of the outside door handle (214). An inside door handle (202) is provided remote from the lock assembly (201) and connected thereto by a linkage (216, 232, 246) which enables the inside handle (202) to operate the lock assembly (201) by overriding the key lock (308). The inside handle (202) can move the linkage to open the door (200) and lock or unlock the lock assembly (201). The outside handle (214) can open the door (200) only if the lock assembly (201) is unlocked. The lock assembly (201) may be unlocked from the outside only by turning the key in the lock (308) to the unlocked position. |
