Alright. ..so for whatever reason my pass door refuses to open. Ive pried back door card and tried to manually actuate the rods. No luck, ive jumped the switch, no dice. Hell, I even tried to pry the door open by slamming a screwdriver into the lock mechanism. Nothing. Consulted bgb...seems like the motor has seized. Only way to t/s involved access to plugs I can only get to with door open (figures). Anyhow...anyone have any ideas on how to open the door before I chop it in half?

I too have a door that is stuck in the closed position on my son's car. The door handle moves normally, but the handle doesn't unlock the lock when you pull it. The power lock cycles in the drivers door when you hit the button, but not in the passengers door. I have tried the slim jim method and soaking in WD40, but I got nothing. Short of cutting the door in half, or taking the panels off the side in the rear and grinding the post bolts off, I have no idea as to how to open the door. Our youngest son has been "Dukes of Hazard"ing his way in for the last week. Anybody with any ideas please put them out there.
