My drivers side door wont open it is a 97 chevey

Check the wiring between pillar post and the door they my be broken, if they are okay at the rear door check the wires at the drivers door as all the wires feed through the master switch.

probably broken linkage inside door panel

ok easy to fix. remove door panel. when u have the replacement parts. start with the outside handle, remove the bolts, undo the bar, remove the handle. same with the inside handles

Replace the inner door handle. the dealer will have it in stock, just tell him the interior color. Real Common.

Should be inside the drivers frame rail. About the area of the drivers door.

take the bezel off around th door handle. take the screw out of the armrest. pull out the window switches and pull out on the door handle and pull up .disconnect the last two plugs then you can see the whole door handle

take the panel off and buy a new inside door handle and install it

try to remove your door panel and check to see if your latch is still connected. some times the rods will drop off. That or your catch on the door itself has come loose and dropped down enough to cause the door to stick and will not open from both inside or out

Pull drivers rear door panel off
1. Remove door lock solenoid and plug it into another door to see if it works
2. If you can reach inside the door to the final mechanism that everything pushes on, push it yourself to see if it works
3. Also look on side of door for possible child saftey lock switch

It is not going to be a fuse, It is going to be your dome light switch on the dash or one of your door switchs is bad. I would start with drivers door, (make sure the other doors are closed) you can open the door and flick the switch in and out a few time. Push it in and let it snap out. (keeping a eye on the lights) If that doesnt work disconnect the door switchs one at a time. Dont let the wire touch a ground because that is what turns the light on. Make sure the dome switch on the light itself is not turned on. It is possible but not likely that a wire has come off of one of the door switches and grounded itself.
