My AE-1 door won't pop open

see the diagrams for power windows+doors and fix it. God bless you

your door rod to your latch must have popped off your inside door latch. take your door pannel off and the door rood will be unhooked

1) Key turns but dose not unlock door. This means that the rod that goes to the back of the lock has came off. This also means that is the reason door is not unlocking with the remote as it pops the lock rod inside the door which pushes the lock open.
2) Key does not turn lock at all but works passengers side door. This means that the locks has been changed in the door, but that doesn't sound like the problem as you say the remote doesn't open the drivers side door so more than likely the rod has came off the back of the lock

try takeing the door panel off and check to see if the rod came out of the lock button.

USE A SLIM JIM TO POP THE DOOR RELEASE CATCH FROM THE OUTSIDE, THEN ONCE OPEN, REMOVE THE DOOR CARD & REMOVE & REPLACE THE DOOR SOLENOID

from inside or outside ? if won't open from inside your child safety lock is probably tripped. if won't open from outside you probably have a lock rod that popped off inside the door, in which I would have the dealer fix it, it involves taking door pad off and when you can't open door to take pad off ,most of the time it damages it.

Try a slim jim first, down the side of the window. Or AAA or locksmith. If no luck, remove the seat first. Find the screws and bolts around the door handle and arm rest. Most Ford's have screws around the outer side of the panel. I don't believe your's does. The panel lifts or pops off. Once the panel is off, you can reach down and open the door. Just a note. I have done some to where the panel came out in pieces.

It sounds like the connecting rod popped out of its plastic connector. Pull the door panel off and check both ends of the rod. It must be unhooked at one end or the other.

Sounds like the receiver portion of your logic board has quit. The wall control is hardwired and doesn't use the receiver.

Battery ( 6 volts ) is situated in front on the left hand side. Small hinged door will pop open if you unlock at the bottom corner. Clean contacts before installing a new battery.
