Driver door lock actuator??please help!!!!

I replaced my driver door on my x5 (e70) because of damage with a used matching door. I closed and opened the door after installing and it was working fine until I locked it. Now the door will not open from the inside or outside. Same issue with the passenger door. My central locking button on the dash does not lock/unlock any doors nor does the key fob. I’ve tried to open by pulling the interior handle over and over, the lock pin raises up but goes down when I release the handle.

I’ve been doing some research and read about bmws “deadlocking” I also read about bad actuators... I don’t think the actuators would go out on multiple doors at the same time....but does any one know if the used driver door I installed had a bad actuator would this affect the others?????

I can turn on and drive it with no problems but I have to go in through the back passenger doors and climb in to the drivers seat.

I can’t try to open the driver door with the key because I didn’t get to change the key cylinder on the used door before this happened.

The remote also opens the trunk/tailgate fine.

Can you check the fuse? There should be a paper diagram in the trunk for it.

^^ if that doesn't work, you may still be able to remove the door panel even if it's shut stuck and access the cable to manually open it.
