Help! Driver door on my 2000 ACR will not open. It acts like it is locked. I have to use emergency latch inside to open door . Anyone had this problem? Any advice?

what about the regular handle INSIDE? (as if you are sitting in the car, getting out) Any problem with passenger door?

I just got the same problem on my '00 ACR Saturday.
I had my nephew's hot girlfriend sitting in it, then when everybody left and I backed it into the garage, presto, both handles on the driver's door were dead.
First I noticed there was no longer any ground on the latch motor. After remedying that the latch would only rattle a bit, but not quite activate. After removing it my electrician friend suggested I replace the passenger one that's still working with the suspected latch before I fork out $500. for a new one.
I'm in the process now of doing that.
