This just happened recently. It won't open from the inside or outside. This happened while trying to fix the window. It has power locks and they all work. The key doesn't even open it now. The pass. Lock does respond but I guess something is stuck or loose. The only problem I could find with the door panel off was a little golden rod just hanging there. The driver's side rod was secured.I tried multiple times to try and put it back in place. Help?
Thank you.

The little goldnerod is probably disconnected and needs to be replaced. You have to pull thedoor paneloff inside the car, no easy task with door shut. Then hook everything back up again so door willopen. I can't seem to find a good pic to show you.
