Drivers side door not unlocking V70-XC70 1998

1998 V70 / 170,000 miles

Can lock/unlock drivers door with key. Can also lock it with the switch on door panel and with key fob lock control. But it WILL NOT UNLOCK with switch on door panel or key fob lock control. Seems the is mechanical resistance inside of door preventing it from unlocking.

Any ideas as to what the problem might be? Would like some idea what to be looking for before I remove the door panel.

Thanks.

There is a small black plastic triangle on the door above the latch. Remove it and spray some silicone on any moving parts and see if that helps matters.
