Think of it like a ratchet wrench where you can't quite return enough to catch the next tooth it's a very similar situation.
I've seen it on xo numerous times.
The fact you got it to move enough to latch suggests you may get it to move enough to unlatch.

Thank you, I was able to pull the door panel off without too much effort....It certainly helps that all of the factory clips and adhesives are prettymuch non-existent from constantly pulling the panel off to try and satisfy this vehicles insatiable appetite for outer handle carriers. Once I got it off I was able to reach in and manually manipulate the mechanism to unlatch the door. After closing the door again it all seemed fine...I drowned the entire area in wd40 and opened and closed it probably 100 times to get it to work its way in.
I was considering waiting for the wd40 to dry off then doing the same with silicone lubricant spray. Would you advise against that?
