I have a 94 acclaim and the back doors will not open. Yes, they are unlocked(manual locks). I have the door panel off, fiddled with the mechinism and soaked it in wd40 all night. I pried at it with a hammer while trying to open, kicked it, and swore and nothing still. The mechinism looks like it's working fine and I worked all the unlocking levers with a screwdriver directly on the mechinism but nothing. Any ideas?

the door hinges might be stiff but keep at it you gotta get lucky sooner or later. not sure if those had child lock or if that would make any difference.
