Driver's door jammed
I have been searching here and the other forums, but I have not found a clear answer to my problem. Basically, the short description is this:
The driver’s side door on my 1987 coupe is locked and will not unlock. The door was working fine, but I closed it after having opened it to open the engine compartment. I got in, drove the car a while, parked and locked it and now the door will not unlock. I have tried the key and the knob inside, but no luck. Any ideas will be appreciated!

A link has fallen off the lock mechanism right at the end of the door. I think you can use a Slim Jim to unlock the door, but you'll have to remove the door panel to fix it.

Milt,
Thanks for the reply. Any idea of what I need to get hold of with the Slim Jim?
