    ... from the outside.

    When you go to put the key in the keyhole to unlock the driver's door. It wont budge. You can lock it from the inside. But when you want to get back in we've got to unlock the passenger then unlock driver door from inside.

    We'd like to get this fixed as we're gonna be selling the Tacoma, but not quite sure what I should be looking for as far as what's wrong with the lock.

    Are there any special tools to get at the locking mechanism apart from just taking off the door paneling?

    Tried searching but my efforts have been less than successful.

    Thanks

    Not quite sure what I did, but it unlocks now. Can't lock it with the key from the outside, but I can unlock it from the outside which is all I care about. Yahoo!
