The lock won't budge either manually or via the master. Neither inside nor outside handles will make the door unlatch. Now what?

the 1 time I had to do this, I was lucky enough to have a spare door panel. the shop owner doubled as a packrat. once the owner was convinced he had to buy the spare panel, I broke the 1 on the door and unlocked it. good luck, chuck.

Another thought... Even though the door may appear fully closed, the latch might be just short of a full close. Push the door closed, and try to unlock again.

I can only give a tip on how I opened a door on a car I was not familiar with. Went to the opposite door that worked. Rolled down the window, and using a flashlight. Looked down into the mechanism area while I open/close a handle. Looking for what rod/mechanism released the door. Then bent a coat hanger and moved to the door that wouldn't open. You get the idea.
