You have to give more info before anyone here can help you. What model and year? This concerns a power lock? If power lock, do the other doors operate ok? Do you hear anything (like what might sound like an actuator's 'clunk' noise) coming out of the door? Or can you physically not open the door, not even manually or with a key? Remco remco.its a 90 accord lx.all the doors unlock.i can look through the top of the door and loock at the acuator.everything is moving.keys will lock and unlock,doors but drivers door feels like its unlocking.seems like actuator is not working.but i need to get panel off to see.how can i get the panel off with the door shut. Duder, you got lucky. I just happen to have the service manual for the ex-wife's 92LX <grin> In the little plastic pocket where the inside door handle is, there is a small round disk at the top left. Pry that out then remove the screw underneath. Jiggle the plastic tray thing off the door handle. The rod that is connected to the door handle goes right to the door opening mechanism. Try pulling on that and see what happens. If that does no good, then have someone push against the lock area on the door edge from the outside, to reduce the locking pressure on the lock and try again. I suspect the grease has dried up in the latch and something is springing or bending. The actuator rod has a few bends in it and if the latch is really dry it might just be springing them straight. Good luck. Let's know how you get on. Dave we tryied that already and all the rods are all hooked up and working but the mechanism we can not get to because we cant get the door to open to remove the panel. we need a away to open the door because i believe it is in the mechanism loked but the dorrs all unlock with the electric lock but the driver door does not open. > we tryied that already and all the rods are all hooked up and working but > the mechanism we can not get to because we cant get the door to open to > remove the panel. we need a away to open the door because i believe it is > in the mechanism loked but the dorrs all unlock with the electric lock but > the driver door does not open. If the grease has coagulated too much because of the cold and is not doing its job, I wonder what would happen if you parked the car in a warm garage before trying this. Not being familar with an accord door panel, but can't you just loosen the door panel and move it? If not, find a slight opening to get to the lock? > we tryied that already and all the rods are all hooked up and working but > the mechanism we can not get to because we cant get the door to open to > remove the panel. we need a away to open the door because i believe it is > in the mechanism loked but the dorrs all unlock with the electric lock but > the driver door does not open.
