The drivers side door will not open. Pushing the toggle switch lock works good all doors toggle open but the drivers side indicator will only open 3/4 of the way. The key in the door will only turn 3/4 of the way and will not open the door
I have lubricated inside of door and have tried pulling on the rods inside after I squeezed inside of the door. I cannot open the door

The altch may be stuck or the rods are stuck. Pull the door panel off, won't be easy, then try moving rods by hand it may have a clip broken on one of the rods not allowing it to unlock. The clips are plastic and after age will beak they should be available at auto parts. See pic for example. Item 3 is for door lock
