Never seen this WTF? Help Fast

My door wont open!!!!
I hit my unlock button on my remote, sounds fine, door wont open though. Passenger side opens, so i tried manually unlocking and using inside latch, no work!!!
Whats wrong, I cant pull the door panel cause the door is shut, I look down in there, from the window hole where the wondow goes down, all bars and linkage looks and moves just like the passenger side
Help fast!!!

Sounds like the linkage or mechanism is shot. Maybe someone knows how to get around the lock? Other than that, my advice is to try taking off the panel with the door closed. I don't see any other way...

Make sure child lock isnt on . I would take apart the door like green demon said and definentally make sure everything is rigged up right.

Worst comes to worse you might have to destroy the door panel to get access in there. There are replacements available in the FS forum all the time.

But damn yeah that sucks.
