that makes things harder..if the key doesnt open the range remotely and the key doesnt turn the lock [broken cable?] then it does sound like you might have to break a window unless someone else has an idea.... ... - .- -.

This is what i think too, but this idea doesn't make me happy. I'll have to first replace the window, and to replace the cable (the key is totally free when i try to turn on left or right)

i would have thought that..the cable is connected to the locking mechanism and there's probably a micro switch or something that triggers the windows.. ... - .- -.

I'll try, but I think the wire should be very rigid to allow to operate the button due to the distance between the seal and the dashboard, but you're right, I'll test this before breaking a window, but according to the profile of the door and the window I am unconfident with the success of the process.

Have you tried to open the tail gate on your remote control and climb thru the back??

The lock has an extension part on the rear, not a cable...,more like a screwdriver extension turning a screw attachment in the latch left & right working the locks... |

If I remember correctly there is also a keyhole on the passenger door - covered by a blanking plate - I think you could prise that off and try to get in that way - chance of both cables being broken is very slim! |

I'm not sure to understand all the idea, but what i understand is that with a screwdriver, - i can remove a screw ? - or I have to move the screwdriver betwen the upper and lower level of the tailgate to make something release the lock ? |

So your issue will be the attachment has fell out of the latch assembly... |
