My driver side door won't open from inside or outside. How I can open the door so I can remove the door panel and get to the mechanism.

I installed gsr rear door handles about a month or two ago and they worked fine till now. When I try to use the power lock button it just immeaditly relocks and the interior handle will not work at all.

Also when my outer passenger door handle doesn't respond but when I go from the inside I have to use the manual unlock button then use the interior door handle.

P.S. i have the door panel most of the way off. I can reach the metal rods that actuate the unlock mechanism but it does nothing

 

I'm confused? If you can take off the door panel then do it, get to the locking mechanism and manual unlock the door. Figure out where you went wrong and then fix.

 

Thanks. I finally got the door open and the interior panel off. I closed the door to test and its doing the same thing so I think I have to now diagnose my power locks.
