I can lock and unlock the rest of the doors with the remote key.
The door handle does move it's full travel when I try to open the door.
Can't open driver side from inside or outside.
Any advise?

There is a small spring that broke. It prevents the lock from opening. I figured it out after getting the inside door panel off the top edge where the panel meets the window. Then I purchased a new lock mechanism and figured out what was preventing it from unlocking. If I had known about the spring I could have just replaced the spring. It's impossible to see the body of the spring without the door panel off. I may have the old mechanism if you want to see how it works so you could release the lock without removing the panel. You will have to remove the panel after the door is open to replace the spring. The dealer wanted to cut the door panel in order for him to fix it. I don't know how hard it would be to find a replacement spring. The dealer could only sell me the entire mechanism.
Good Luck,
