Dubya-Dee-40! :D
(wd40, that is)
I had a similar problem, the locking mechanisms, well... locked. Couldn't turn the key, couldn't get it unlocked from the inside... Try spraying a bunch of wd40 into the door handle, maybe it'll drip down to the lock. I got lucky and managed (after many days of trying) to force the lock open. I looked pretty stupid climbing over the passenger's seat in the meantime. Once I did manage to get it unlocked I took the door panel off and soaked it with wd40. Hasn't given me a problem since.

Re: HELP! my door is stuck (jerryp58)
I had the same thing happpen my lock mechanism was worn out. I managed to get the door panel off with the door shut...........NOT AN EASY JOB. Then took out the lock mechanism and replaced it with a new one. If you have to do this I hope your hands are small.............not fun :nonod:
