Just started to do this recently, when you manually pull the unlock knob just under the handle that opens the door, it forces back into position, the power lock sound and action continues repeatedly for five to ten seconds and then stops. i have to remove driver side t top and climb out driver window, like Dukes of Hazzard.

Seeing your picture, you do not look like Bo or Luke, so we need to get this fixed. lol Honestly, I would start by removing the door panel. Based on your description, it sounds like one of the linkage rods has bent and is not allowing the lock to work. Start there and let me know if it helps.
