Hi John
the ignition key will open the front passenger side door using the keyhole below the handle you can then open the drivers side door by reaching over to the interior handle
best wishes

Thanks for using FixYa.First of all you’ll need to check
battery voltage, recharge it if it is low or jump start with another battery
charger. Inspect, clean and tight both ends of all battery cables. Also check,
clean and tight wiring connections. Check for voltage at relay. If relay has
voltage but there is no "click" when key is turned to start, replace
relay. Remove starter and inspect drive gear and flywheel teeth, replace
damaged parts if necessary. Check to see if voltage reaches starter relay/solenoid
when turn to start. If not, check for open P/N switch and brake or clutch pedal
switch.Please prythe
interior panel and release the inside door locks. If still the issue is not
resolved then you’ll need to drill a two inch hole into the latch to access the
inside lock link through the interior panel. After removing the panel replaces
the latch to resolve the issue. See the picture where to drill--- Please do accept the solution if the issue is
resolved or else revert for further assistance. Thanks Rylee
Sounds like you require a new interior light switch on the passenger door. Find this little push button switch and give it a few flicks and taps with your finger and see if the light at least flickers. You could open the drivers door and fiddle about until you determine which and where is the switch.
Check each door switch drivers and passengers for a tight fit and then snap the buttons in and out by just pushing them in and sliding your finger off till it snaps out. Do this several times and you may solve the problem. Otherwise, the door switch has reached a point where it is not being fully depressed when the door is closed. Try to wiggle the closed doors from the outside, with the window open so you'll have something to grab onto. If there is excesive play in the door thats your proble, it needs to be re aligned.
Same problem. I have a 2000 Suzuki Esteem GL. A year ago the driver's door handle broke. Heard a sound and then it was loose. Could not open it from outside. Had to open front passenger door, open the driver's door from inside and then go out again to enter from the driver's door. FRUSTRATING. My mechanic had to take the door apart to fix it. Just a week ago, my front passenger door died on me. Can't open it from outside nor inside. The door won't open. This is such a stupid problem that costs lots to repair. Never will buy a Suzuki again. Had too many problems with it (had to fix gas tank, doors that won't open, front axle...).
you should check the wire harness that goes from the door to the truck there must be a bad conection near by there somewhere in the harness hope this could help you.
sounds like you are the victim of the slim jim. what happened is the clip for linkage either broke or got knocked off. you have to remove door panel and repair/replace clip
