My driver front door will not open. There is no key fob to unlock so you have to use the key. When I unlock the door it won't open from using the outside handle and I have to crawl in from the passenger side. I noticed when I move the lock switch with my finger from inside the car that it won't move freely to the unlock position and it still won't open.

Hi petros73,

Most probably the locking mechanism or central lock actuator is jammed.

If repeatedly locking and unlocking manually from inside with the knob does not help, it would be quite troublesome to solve the problem

Ensure that both outer handle and inner door opener are fully returned to position before trying the above.
