2 or 4 door? If 2, you should still be able to use key on exterior, and I don't think they have a child lock on 2 doors, so I'm guessing 4. With car unlocked, can't you open rear doors from outside even with child lock on?

If I am remembering correctly, the switch is part of the latch. Each door has its own switch to turn on the interior light, and it sounds like the switch in the driver's door latch is either stuck or junk. If it has to be replaced it is very simple to remove for those that know how, but a nightmare for those that don't. The exterior handle has to be removed to release the pull-cord to the latch, interior trim panel and vapor barrier has to come off. Electrical harness, lock rod, interior handle rod, all have to be removed. Now the latch. Then it all has to go back together, and most importantly, it all has to work. I'm not saying it's not possible. I'm saying that it can ruin your day and your wallet if something goes wrong.

I can help you out. Please contact me from the "contact us" page on my website www.ElectronicLockSmith.com. I need to get a little more info from you about the version and then I can provide with you some help. You can also call me Monday-Friday. Thanks, Ken Croston Jr. 407 814 8974

Hope this helps.

Sounds like your exterior handle is stuck in up position. If so put a hook tool up in it and attempt to pull it down. If you find that it is not, then you will need to remove the interior trim panel to gain access to the latch and linkages.

the only way to fix handle is to replace it.not to difficult.

hate to tell you.. only way involves destroying door panel to get inside to find problem....

Ford had a problem with the door handles not working properly. They are cheap plastic. If the exterior door handle is broken, you will need to drill out the rivets that hold it in, and then get the door open and the panel off. You have to disconnect the rod going to it. Then, remove the handle. If you don't want to drill again, I suggest replacing the rivets with a bolt and nut easily obtainable at your hardware store. I've found that a M7 bolt works very well. If you are having a problem with the interior door handle, it's the same problem. Remember to check your door latch because if your exterior handle is broken, then your latch isn't working properly. I got one at Ford for about 40 bucks.
