    ok,when you take the strip off,if you look down inside your door you will see a black plastic object with a plug going into it,thats the lock actuator. in front of that towards the rear of the door is your door lock mech.there will be a little plastic rod coming out of the actuator,this locks & unlocks the door. if you disengage this rod from your door lock mechanism( the door lock mech will have levers attached to it that open/close & lock/unlock the door). with the rod disengaged you will be able to unlock the door manually. sometimes you can get away with not doing this & just hook the lock/unlock lever then bobs your uncle,open sesame. this is a basic how to,unfortunately i find some things easier to do than explain unless its sitting in front of me,lol. but this should be enough for you to get the gist of it & know what to look for
