Hi there,

The lock mechanism has probably failed, can you open the door from the in side, as you will have to remove the door trim to access the lock,

Hi there,

With the trim off you will have to disconnect the link rod to the lock from the barrel & key, if the key still wont turn you will have to replace the barrel & key, check this next.
