Barn Door Latch Malfunction - Stuck open or closed
#32
I had a similar problem on my IS (door handle). I used a penetrating cleaning oil like WD-40 and a high pressure air hose (90 psi) with a nozzle and sprayed and blew multiple times. Eventually, you will notice that you will have a full range of movement. I then lubricated with a light oil. Hope this helps.

I have the same issue with lock trunk door handle sticks. 2012, GX460 ,70K. For temporary solution I push back the handle...
Most likely install a new actuator as I saw many youtube with similar issue?

If cleaning & lubrication doesn't address the PNs appear to be as follows

These are standard Prado parts so you can find cheaper overseas

Tailgate latch locked while door is open
2011 GX 460 85k - tailgate door latch is in shut/locked position while door is open - can’t get latch to open to allow door to shut - is this the actuator - there is a click sound when fob is used but nothing moves on latch - any help would be appreciated

While pulling on the handle outside of vehicle are you able to take a screwdriver and force the latch open? If not you may need to pull the rear interior panel off for a closer inspection of door interior.

Thanks for your help - I removed the back panel and after concentrating on the cable between handle and latch/catch in the door to no positive outcome I try pushing in on the electrical connection where the sound comes from above the latch when you hit unlock on the fob - and it works now - I really question if that is a long term fix so I leaving the panel off and tools in cargo area till I feel more confident about it - the links you sent for removing panel were a big help -Thanks

EDIT: May need to go this route to get a closed door open.
You are going to have to try to remove the interior trim from the inside to get at problem.
