I'm in a heck of a bind that hopefully someone can help with. I bought a
used 2003 BMW 525 3 days ago and much to my surprise I can't unlock the
driver door. Here's what I've tried...
1. Tried unlocking with keyless key. It'll lock and unlock the other 3
doors.
2. Tried manually unlocking with the key. It'll lock and unlock the other
3 doors.
3. I tried pulling on the lever to open the door from the inside...doesn't
work.
4. I tried unlocking from the switch on the center console. It'll lock and
unlock the other 3 doors.
Any thoughts on how I go about fixing this problem?

I took the passenger side door panel out and I don't see how I can remove
the panel on the drivers side without first unlocking and opening the door.
Is this something that can be opened with a slim jim?

Thanks,
David

"double-locks" the door as well as electrically. At least it used to on
