If the driver's door is lock, I can insert the key and rotate it, but it doesn't unlock the door.

If I go through the passenger side, I can unlock the door, and the door handle works just fine from the outside.

I think I have read that there is a little plastic thingie that breaks. Anyone have better details than that?

TIA

So I did a little recon today (along with my hydro-locking problem) and took off the door panel on the driver's side to gain access to this handle.

Attached Image

The nut at #1 in the picture is stuck to the stud and the nut and the stud rotate together. Therefore, I believe that the stud is broken at the handle somehow. It won't back out. Unless someone has a better idea, I think I will need to cut that nut off of there.

The allen bolt at position 2 came out just fine.

Any suggestions on what to do with #1?
