I know this sounds like common sense (but as they say, common say may not be so common), but have you tried pulling the key out of the ignition first? It's kind of a not-as-great-as-Honda's-approach to keeping you from locking your keys in the car (with a Honda, the ONLY way you can lock the door is by remote or key).

Which handle, the outside handle or the inside handle and why?

[prsolara]

the inside handle of the driver... why? idk i changed it for a new one and now the lock doesnt work.

No, I meant why as in was the old one defective (e.g. it broke apart), just wanted something better looking (e.g. perhaps going for a 2-tone effect), or if this was an outer handle, was the car in the accident before...?

The most likely solution might have been that you didn't hook the steel rod to the lock switch properly. Does it still lock by other means (e.g. the key or power lock button)? If it does, most likely that's all that it is. If not, a professional might be your better bet.

the other one was broken so I changed it,(the inside handle) and no it dont lock by the key or power lock button, i have to check again if it is that i didnt hook the steel rod to the switch cuz i do it and it doesnt work...

anyway THANKS FOR YOUR HELP is very apreciated...
