I removed the door handle when the door was open, but after having the handle removed I closed the door for the night to shut off the car electric system...
But 2day I finally got the door open by re-inserting the door handle in the door and punch it into the lock lol after I opened the inside door panel to be able to re-install properly the door handle , after doing all that I tryed to close and open the door and it works ! BUT, I tryied to open the door after closing it and activate the alarm...Guess what, IT DOES NOT OPEN AGAIN ! So Im at the same point now, the only difference is that the door handle is on!
Thanks for you help man really appreciate the diagram ! But now it kinda different cuz I dont have any access to the latch, I guess Ijust have to play with the handle a lot until the door decide to open ..

I am almost tempted to release the cable that is connected to the exterior door handle because i think that tension is keeping the latch from resetting or something.
