Usually the cables break that go from the latches to to handle. You'll have to get door panel off, then you can usually pull on the inner wire of the cables manually to get door open, it's the outer jacket part that breaks. Then you can replace them. I don't know if the aftermarket sells the cables, we always buy them from Ford at work on customers trucks.
