I'd been warned that they'd eventually be trouble.
My `96 Cherokee's electric door locks are getting to be trouble, they're getting weak. The big trouble, though, is that my front passenger door cannot be unlocked. The key won't turn far enough to unlock it, the door rocker cannot be pushed by hand far enough to unlock, and the electric actuator thunks like it is unlocking, but it doesn't. In all cases it moves easily enough to the locked position, but wont go far enough to unlock.
Anyone have experience with repairing these? How do I get the inner door panel off if I cannot open the door?
A 4 1/2" angel grinder with a cut-off wheel comes to mind....
