Help door stuck closed
I have a 95 F150 I picked up cheap and figured I'd fix a few things. Put new lock cylinders on and all seemed to be working fine. Inside door latch is broken but figured it'll be fine till new one comes in I can just open door from the outside. Well long story short I closed the door and now it will not open at all. I got the panel partially off but it seems the lock is not fully releasing. The door plunger lock comes partially up but not all the way and no amount of pulling or banging has been able to release it. Any suggestions to get the door open so that I can take it apart???

Push the outside button as far in as you can get it and give a good jerk on the door handle. Mine did the same thing and that worked for me. There are videos on youtube to help with replacing the cable. You can find links to youtube video on this website.

That link I posted is a youtube. It only gave the url not the link. There are some good ones out there and some questionable but easy to spot. If it was you that needed a latch and posted, I saw one at the junk yard Friday and thought of you or whoever it was. The reason I'm rambling on is because Patrick has apparently locked himself in the truck.

I am losing my strength. Just didn't want to tell anyone to have their wife push the button like I did. 
I didn't recognize your post as youtube but knew whatever it was had to be good info. It wasn't me looking for the latch, thank goodness. I hope Patrick can roll down his window and crawl out before it gets too late.
