Door locks are not working

My door lock actuator is fauted an I cannot get the door opened from inside or out is there any way for me to get the door opened myself

I had the same problem with my 2002 Kia Rio and I know you can not get the door panel off while the door is in the shut position. What I did, after trying everything (this may sound like car abuse but) was kick the door open. One kick did it cleanly with no damages.

Once the door was open I took the panel off and found out the lock was jammed because of a broken spring which returns a little lever to an up position. However If this lever is not returned to the up position, ironically it locks the door lock in the lock position. This keep the actuator or even a manual lock from being able to be unlocked.

Thus I went to Home Depot and bought a pack of lots of random sized springs for about 3 to 4 bucks and used one of the springs to apply the necessary tension on the lever. Saving me hundreds of pennies. You can use a totally different type of spring and you can also attach it anywhere as long as its securely fastened and out of the way of moving parts i.E. The moving glass window and other moving parts.

My driver-side door lock is not unlocking. I turn the key to unlock. The key turns and the lock switch moves, but not enough to "click" and unlock the door. By pulling up on the lock switch, it comes up, but again, not enough to unlock. It feels stuck. I was able to spray WD-40 down the lock switch shaft and into the lock itself throught the key hole, and it worked for awhile, but the same problem happened again. I do not have power locks.

I just bought a central door locking system online for my 2006 kia rio lx and I have no clue how to install it, can someone please let me know where I can get it installed or how to install it myself? Thank you!

2006 Kia Rio

I have a manual car lock. We recently removed the plastic frame to put in a new window (in case that IS part of the reason). I drove around all day, locking and unlocking my car just fine. When I got out the last time, the door lock was in the unlocked position. I went to push it down to lock it, but it wouldn't budge! It was totally stuck somehow. So the door won't lock or close (and someone said my latch seemed to move just fine). It's currently tied closed with some bondage rope.

Help me, please!
