Default Power Door Lock Problem

My drivers side door will not lock either manually or using the power lock button. I can hear the motor when I hit the switch, but nothing happens. The key will also not turn in the cylinder. All the other locks work fine. Any suggestions?

Did that yesterday, but don't know what a messed up linkage looks like.

The lock did work when it was all taken apart and then stopped once I put it back together.

You bent the leakage most likely when you put it back together.

Where can you get a linkage? Didn't see any thing on Quadratec, ebay, or JC whitney.
