How can I open my passinger side door when the door handles don't work.
If I can get the door open I could repair it.

Hi:

If both the outside and inside door handle don't work, your only choice is to remove the door panel, reach inside the door, and open it manually from inside the door itself.

Sorry I don't have ea better answer for you, but to the best of my knowledge, that is the only choice.

Let me know if I helped, and the outcome.
