I have searched for an answer for this and can't find one. Anyone here ever have a back door lock shut and you can't get it open? The back driver's side rear door is locked shut and I can't get it unlocked. The door locks don't work either(power) and the fuse is good.:shrug: All other doors open except that one and I can't lock any of them. I have never seen anything like this. Any ideas where to look? I'm clueless. :confused:
I'm probably going to be going to the junkyard this coming weekend so any part you might think I might want to try let me know and I'll pick it up. If worse comes to worse I'll cut the door skin off to get to the inside and after I get it opened I'll replace the door. I'll let everyone know the out come so if it happens to someone else They will see what they can do.

Thanks in advance,

I had this problem on my 95. And noi matter how many times i fixed it it always came back. IT happned on all 4 doors but i gave up on my drivers read door. Something to do with the wire that connects to the door latch.

How did you get the doors opened? All my doors open except the drivers rear door. None of my locks work at all though. I don't know it's wierd.

Well here is an update I finally got the door opened with some help from my g/f 's dad. We had to hold the lock knob in the unlock position and force the door open from the inside. It was froze shut but the door lock is not unlocking the whole way for some reason. You can only get it open from the inside.:shrug: I'll have to take the panel off when it warms up a bit and give the door latch a good clean and lube. I checked the fuse with a tester that came with my fuses and it said it was good but when I took it out it was blown.:rolleyes: I replaced it and now some of the doors lock and some don't. :nonono: I'll mess with it and get it figured out this spring. Thanks for the help.
