Default 2002 focus door handle

How do you repair a broken door handle on a Focus? When the handle is pulled nothing happens. The inside handle works ok.

Is this a sedan, wagon, or hatchback?

Somebody on here runs a site called "focus-hacks" or something like that. I had the same problem and his step-by-step worked like a charm. More or less, you have to pull apart the door and lube the locking mechanism. It's a common problem
