Default doorlock ceised... how to open door?

Okay on my 93 lx it seems my power lock actuator decided to lock up on me, now I cant use the key or the lock button to unlock the driver side door, anyone have any tricks to getting that bastard open?

Same thing happened to my passenger door. I just carefully worked with the key and door handle and it finally loosened enough to open the door. Took forever though.

Youre absolutly roght about the actuator. Youre going to need to remove the interior door panel and just disconnect the little rod on the actuator and itll work just fine other than youll have to use the key to unlock. Or while youre in there you could just put a nw one in. Only crappy thing is theyre riveted to the door[:@].
