Door locks not working
Door locks not working
Tried to go to work and my doors struggled to open, then when I got in the doors wouldn't close. Tried to fidget with the lock on the door with my fingers and it closed, but now won't open no matter if I hit lock and unlock, had to crawl out the passenger side and that door won't close now. I'm very bad with electrical work so I have no idea what it could be.

Yes it's definitely possible that your latching mechanism is frozen up, do the rest of the doors work properly?
You can remove the door exterior and interior panel to inspect for any problems with the linkage or latching mechanism, it's not a common issue for the latching mechanism to fail but it does happen occasionally.
Just to verify the HINGE is working properly yes? It's just that the latching mechanism won't function properly?

Absolutely do not wash your car when it's below freezing.
Try your best to not allow water near your driver's side door in general, if it can be prevented.
You can apply heat from the interior with a space heater or hair dryer which might help or might not
It's best to remove the interior door panel . Once you can see inside you'll know exactly what the problem is and how to fix it.
To open the door, remove your window trim from the interior and use a long stiff wire with a bend / hook at the end.
