remove the door panel,and partly pull back the plastic film be extra carefull with these,dont get dirty as it needs to be stuck back,locate 2 screws holding handle in place on door unscrew from door u will find small connecting bracket broken its common as its plastic u will see the con rod u shaped both ends, to reconnect door handle you will have to move the black window runner out of the way for space but first u will have drill/pop out the centre of rivet that holds it in place and replace it later a nut/bolt/or new rivet i used a thin copper oval head bolt1.5"long,2xnut/locking paste. first refit the conrod to handle its very hard u may have to open/close the u on the rod to reconnect to d handle screw handle back into place and sort runner as above this must be tight and do not over distort this at anytime check for free running of window and adjust if need be take ur time as its a small work area the rivet hole must kept the same size, hope this helps

Depending on your problem i'd suggest taking down the door panel. some piece might be broken.
