Rear door locked shut!

[JTX]

I just got done fixing my rear door and now its F'ed up again. It will lock and unlock fine but its just not releasing. Both the handles are solid just as if it was locked. You can see all the locking mechanisms working its just not releasing. Is there anyway to get this POS open before i take the plasma to it? lol :fire:

Rear door is siezed

My left rear door will not open and appears permanently locked. The other three doors will open and lock/unlock either manually or by electronic lock, but not left rear. How to open the door or can I remove the panels OK in the closed configuration?

Open the rear window and look near the latch -- there should be a rectangular plastic piece of plastic that can be pulled off. Inside there you can get to the lock mechanism, and hopefully unlock the door manually.

Getting the plastic housing off without opening the door is pretty much impossible, unless you want to cut it apart.

If all esle fails, and before you get out the crowbar, you could always remove the seat to get at the door panel.
