Door 'check straps' 850 1995

Hey all,

I opened my driver's door when I was getting out of my car the other day, heard a snap, and now there's no resistance when I open or close the door. I think something has happened with my check strap inside the door. The metal strap is connected just fine to its hinge on the body of the car, but seems to be loose and "floating" around in the slot inside the door.

I haven't taken apart the door yet, but I suspect that kind of repair is in order soon.

What usually fails, and what parts would I need to get ahold of to fix this potentially dangerous (at least to the hinges and paint on the car) situation.

Thanks again,

Nate
