Same thing happens on my ed futura, except passenger side. I'm 90% sure its the solenoid that opperates the lock on one of the other 3 doors. Try and lock it and look to see which door lock button doesn't go down, that's the one that's stuffed. Probably should get mine replaced some time, looks like a bugger of a job too, the fastening screws are on the inside of the door, and i can't see a thing in there. Looks like a dealer job.
You need to remove the button to remove the door trim!
I have done this to the button on several occasions, and the buttons are still in very good condition.
Not gouged to hell.
1. Remove interior door handle.
2. Remove window winder (If manual)
3. Remove philips head screws on sides of door trim.
4. Ease door trim up, uncliping from the top.
5. Move door trim away from the door slightly, and down to expose the knob.
6. Unscrew knob.
To get the button off without gouging it, simply use masking tape and put a few layers over it, then use a pair of multigrips on the tape. Did it on mine 3 times, and not leave a mark.
i'm sure theres millions of chicks who'd wish that were possible.
