91 accord door wont open

[LaRoda]

HELPPP!!! I have a 91' Honda Accord, driver side door lock would not release. I have checked all rods and connections everything in there is functuning and moving but the release mechanism is not doing its thing. I even drilled a hole in the door and used a wire to grasp the lever that would release the lock but to no avail that lever is loose. HELP!!

thanks ALPH Ive already tried four locksmiths but this is not the ordinary problem.

wow. thats quite a problem then...hmm you could always take it to the dealer or pretty much any shop and they could probably just break the lock, might damage it a litte...

well destroying the lock / door would be a last resort.
but I hope there is someone who licked this problem before. I gatta get out of here and do some more trying. will check the forum again later.
thanks

I have a 90 four door accord with the same problem, only I have shaved door handles. My old door accuators went out, so the doors will not open using remote.
What I did was take off the middle panel on the door and hand pulled the rod to open the door. That worked for the right front door. I have not tried the drivers sided door yet, because of the screwy accuators it would unclock and then immediately re-lock when I used the remote. I bought new accuators and 35 lb poppers for both doors, just have not installed them yet. My accord has a 95 H22a JMD in it and I think my starter is not working, but that is for another thread.
AS soon as I solve the starting problem, I will tackle the doors problem.
Keep me posted on how you finally got your door to open and I shall do the same. Oh yeah, I assume you also pulled the middle panels and tried to hand pull the rod? Good luck
