Door locks Hmmmmmm

[nfpgasmask]

Correct, I can't open from either side lol

Damn, that sucks. So, no matter what you do with the power locks you can't get either side to engage and free up either latch? Hmmmm. Sounds like that rod in there came off or something else totally broke.

Now, if you are VERY careful, you might be able to remove (with some slight bending) the trim from the inside. You have to take off the grab handle and the door latch but it is just held on with some x-mas tree fasteners.

I guess worst case scenario you would need to forcefully remove the inner trim from the inside and get it replaced.

Do you hear any clicking when you flip the locks on and off? I wonder if it could be electrical???

I can't think of what else to do! Maybe a slim jim to get the door opened so you can remove the trim?

Floating down the river is starting to catch up to you!

Hey now, I have only had the water reach the door locks like 3-5 times.


No sound from passenger side when flipping electric lock switch.

nfpgasmask, thats the only way I see doing it as of right now. I don't see a slim jim working since I can't even pull the inside lock up. Any other ideas?

You mean a SlimJim or removing the panel by force?

I'd try to jimmy it 1st, destroy it 2nd. Call a lock shop, they should be able to get it open for you so you can work on it.

Removing it by force from inside after removing the passenger seat and hoping it will flex enough to pass the door pillar and let me get my skinny arms in there.

you arent gonna be able to do that....its gonna break if you try to remove it with the door shut...

i would honestly pull apart the window/lock mechanism and see if you can send the motor power to get it to unlock...i believe that if our motor looses power it wont allow the mechanism to move at all...check your fuses (i know it sounds dumb, but its worth a try)...

Try removing the armrest (the part with the switches and checking the connector or....




























....you can just keep the window down and do it Dukes of Hazard style!

You could even stop by your local police office (state or local). They have a lot of experience getting into locked cars.
