My driver side door on my 95 sc300 will not open. I was using the remote entry, and hit the button and accidently lifted the handle too soon, and now it will not open at all. The car is unlocked, but the door will not open, almost like the mechanism is stuck. Both from the outside and the inside lifting the handle does nothing. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get the door open and potentially fix my problem? Also, has anyone experienced or heard of this before?

Thanks

try taking your door panel off and looking in side, with the panel off have someone try opening it from the out side while you are looking inside. use a flash light and look at the door handel. you might just have snaped the plastic in side and if not that let me know.

dude i do not know if you tried this yet but its worth a shot, disconect the battery for 5 min and see what happens if that does not work then you will have to cut your door open. ouch

Seems like the rod broke off the plastic clip. If you are lucky, call AAA (if you have it) and get them to jimmy your door open.

its possible that the head of the wire just popped off...you will have to take the panel off to fix it!

Try removing the door handle. There should be a latch there and you might be able to unlock the door. If not, then AAA will get it open.
