Ok here's the problem
1. child safty lock is on
2. outside door handle is broken

So does anybod know how I can get the door open to be able to fix the problem?
 






I had this problem on a rear door and about the only thing you can do is to pull the door panel off as best you can and then reach inside the door and pull the linkage that connects the outside handle to the latch.
 






i know this is a rather old thread but what i did was drill out the rivets holding the outside handle on and then just pull up un the part that mounts to the door . u got to pull it just right but its better then messin up a door panel and u gotta drill out the rivets anyways to replace the handle
