I just replaced the door handle on the rear driver side door. Once completed, the door open and shuts perfectly. Then, when I press the power lock and unlock button on the driver's door, the door will not open and stays permanently lock. What is the issue? Could it be the actuator?

My door jammed up over the weekend. And now I can't open the door from the outside or the inside? How can I get my door to open?
