It's normally the handle itself.
Have you taken the handle off and looked inside?
Normally what happens is where the spindle inserts into the handle will have split and/or the spring has failed.
Grab yourself a screwdriver and pop that handle off

Dear sircerebus666,
Thank you for your reply.
The spindle appears to be in two parts joined in the middle with an axel, so that each half can turn independently. The spindle appears to be ok. On the outside of door side, that half of the spindle has a spring around it with a clip. On the inside of door side, there is no spring or clip.
