Default 92 Jeep Cherokee Door Jammed

Hi I am new to this so here it goes. I recently bought a 92 Cherokee Laredo knowing that the front passenger door didn't open and seeing as the guy I bought it from was a total idiot, I figured it would be an easy fix. I managed to get the door open once and thought I had fixed it so I shut it back and now I can't get it open for the life of me. I have power locks but I am manually moving the lock mechanism which seems to be working fine. Also, the first time I opened the door I just pushed on the release mechanism (the one that is moved when you manually press the lock/unlock button) and the door opened fine. Now it won't open ant all and it seems like it is locked but like I said the locking mechanism seems to be working fine. I can't see a whole lot because it's hard for me to fit in the passenger floor space and still see what is going on. I have already taken one of the door panels off of a door that works to see what is going on and I can't really see a difference between the two. Sorry this is so long but I'm becoming really frustrated. Help Please!

I have the same problem on my '88 XJ drivers side rear door, however I didn't do anything with it yet as I still have 3 more doors. LOL If you fix it please post so I will look at mine! I will do the same!

I still haven't had any luck I am about ready to cut the stupid thing off and replace it because I still can't see or feel enough to know what is going on in there. Anybody have a diagram or something?
