Left front Door superlocked and stuck

Hello, this time I'm so desperate that I even post Laughing

While sitting in the car I locked it on the inside and then pressed the lock button on the key ... Superlock?
Then I had the issue that it does not unlock anymore, not from the inside, not from the outside, not with the key on the hidden underneath plastic cover... and the lock mechanism inside has this hard spring feeling... Shocked
Any suggestions how I can ever open the door again? without destroying my vehicle completely?

All the best?

At times like that I would try a hard reset. Disconnect the battery, leave it for 20 minutes, touch the two battery leads together, then connect it all up again. It can't do any harm, but might... just might, re-set whatever ECU has thrown a wobbly. Previously:

Its a pain to do with the door shut. But can be done, remove the door panel, what I found the easiest way to get it open was, through the window winder mechanism panel { has to be moved out of the way} to get hold the door lock and pull it upwards and twist it, get it to break, this always unlocked the door to open it.
It needs a new lock anyway and this one has the two cables attached to it.
