Door stuck shut...Help!

[Simons2k]

My driver's side door is stuck shut. The locks are operational but the door handles inside and out will not open the door. I'm guessing some sort of linkage/mechanism inside the door panel has broken or come loose.

The problem is I can't remove the door panel because my door is stuck shut

Is there any way to open the door by hooking something from the top through the window slit?

Uh-oh - that is not good!

My driver side door is also jammed, couldnt open it for days. Good to know I have a talented crew that was able to open the door without damages.

Looks like a lot of work to replace the door actuators not to mention the $470+ for the part

Still patiently waiting for the part.

So I just ordered the part. I read in detail the threads. I'm now thinking that most of the trouble was in opening the door. Fortunately I don't have that issue currently. I'm going to give a go at replacing the unit. As best I can determine, that portion may not be that bad.

Thanks for all that posted. I'll confirm when I'm clear.

I just had the same problem last month, it's a hard fix Simon and with some collateral damage involved that can not be avoided, get the replacement part first before you start working on this. I bought mine for $250 in a junkyard here in the Valley that have tons of parts for the NSX. Call me up if you have questions on how to get this done 818-357-8542. It's very tricky to get into this part to replace it once your door lock mechanism is already broken with the door close but I did it.
