My key won't work in the door lock on driver side. Can't unlock door. How do I repair and how do I remove the interior door panel? Thanks.
Try putting a little graphite lock lube in the lock to see if it is just stuck first. Does your key work on the other locks? Do you have a spare key that you haven't tried? If you need to pull the lock, use a trim removal tool to pull the door panel off, starting at the bottom removing the clips on the outer edge of the panel. Unscrew the fasteners holding the armrest on and be careful of the door handle to avoid bending the linkages. Door locks don't fail too often.

I have tried graphite spray and spare keys. The other locks on the car all work.
I have the exact same problem with my 87 camry. The key works with all other doors except drivers side front. I can unlock it from the inside by just pulling up the door lock. I have two keys and have same issue with both.
