At wits end, I have been working over 8 hours just today. The power lock mechanism was whining (like me) so I took it apart & found the gear inside was striped. So I put it back together so I could go to the dealer to get a new one without the door swinging open as I drove. Got the new one home attempted to open the door & it is like it is frozen shut. The door will not open at all, I have the new one & looked at how it was to work & pulled on the rods & it will not open. Now I tried going at it from the other direction & tried to get into where the mechanism locks onto the body& you cant get anything in there to push the lever back to release it.

H E L P don't know what or where to go from here

when you find out garry let me know what you did cause im gonna give it another shot tommorow . I pulled my hair out and cant figure out why you cant manually open the door threw the door panel. I pulled on the levers, figured out the child lock and which way it was supposed to be, and manually unlock the door and still nothing. i wish i would have just unplugged the noise and delt with locking the door manually, anyway ill let you know if i can figure it out and you do the same if you dont mind
