The front passenger door will not open from the inside or the outside. It has manual locks and windows.I tried opening with the key and it will not open. The lock button on the inside door is stuck.
I was able to work the top portion of the door panel off and I do not see anything loose or disconnected.
I tried pushing and pulling on any moving parts I can see inside but can not get the door to open.
I also looked for a detailed diagram of the inside of the door and the locks, but can not find any.
Can you help me with getting the door open?
