ML320 driver's side door doesn't unlock

Unable to unlock driver side door

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- Ooops, posted to the wrong thread originally - sorry if you saw this already

Hi,

I am unable to unlock the driver's side door of my 1998 ML320. I can't unlock it by using the key, by lifting the black door knob, by using the lock button on the console or by using the remote. Looks like the black door knob is stuck - I can't lift it in order to unlock the door. I can open the door from the inside by using the manual door lever next to the door handle.

All other doors work fine. When using the remote, I get the click, click, click I saw other postings on similar issues, however, thy were related to unable to lock rather than unable to unlock.

Anybody seen this before? How did you fix it?

Regards,
Adrian
