Awhile back my outside rear door handle stopped working. The door would still open from the handle on the inside. I attempted to solve the problem by fiddling around with the door. In a moment of sheer stupidity, I engaged the child safety lock and closed the door (I did not realize I was turning the child safety lock on). Now, the door will not open from the outside (because of the broken handle) or the inside (because of the engaged child safety lock). I have no idea how to solve this conundrum! Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

LOL that suck's man, I think you will have to get that door panel off because you don't get much access without. Pretty sure the inner door handle is locked for good because the child safety lock is on. 100$ at Mazda - I just had it done when my actuator failed lol, might as well get the handle replaced while there at it.
