Bmw X5 Drivers Door Wont Open From Outside
I used the button on the key to open the car this morning but the drivers door would not open - it's as if the handle is not catching? I had to climb. With the handle still jammed open rotate the handle 45°. Use a plastic prying tool to assist in pulling the handle off the front anchor. To remove the door handle carrier go inside the door and disconnect the Bowden cable from the door latch. Back outside the door remove the Phillips screw exposed when the outer handle was removed.

Driver door wont unlock with remote, inside dash button, or driver side door handle inside or outside or with the key. Driver locked inside. All other doors unlock except the driver. If it's the fuse or the actuator, wouldn't the key open it? Makes no sense.
I’m having this issue, what was the cause ?
I think it's the cable from the outer handle to the actuator being slightly stretched and not allowing it to fully open.
