2010 town and country front left door opening issues
 

Hello all, need some help here, no matter where I look or how I word it , my searches keep showing me sliding door problems. That's not what I have going on here. Front passenger door acts like it's locked, but pushing the buttons on the doors or the fob and the lock goes up and down. But yet will not onen from the inside or outside. II was told the it's the latch and lock actuator that has failed, need to replace. Well can't get the bloody door open to do so. I have since taken the seat out , door card has been half taken off and put to the side ,checked internal components .Everything is moving the way it should be ,but yet it still won't open. Please help
