Once the inner door trim panel is removed, and the latch is exposed, the mechanism is relatively self-explanatory. Thee is usually a lever with a hole and a metal or plastic bail clip.

The other possibility is the locking mechanism is not completely releasing, permitting the interior lever to operate but not the exterior. Either way, the latch mechanism will need to be inspected.
