installed anything in the doors lately? i put a screw through my door for central locking and it ended up blocking the linkage just enough for my handle to not work properly. it took me ages to figure out. if you havent put anything in your doors then take the trim off and make sure all linkages are connected i guess...

I had the same problem on a VH. I just put a coat hanger down from the outside, found the release linkage arm (like they do when you break into a car) and gave it a good hard yank while at the same time yanked the door open.
After a few attempst the door finally opened. I the removed the trim and cleaned, aligned, tightened and lubricated everything. Never want this problem again.
