Cannot unlock/open passenger front door

[JS7319]

I have a door which does not unlock either from outside or inside. The door connector might have been disconnected (as we were planned on removing the door from the car), but I'm uncertain whether this was connected back up to the door. The door is completely unresponsive.

Does anyone know whether this is due to the connector possibly being unplugged? I thought that the door handle, both from the inside and outside was mechanical, as in the cable within the door was responsible for unlocking it.

Is any one able to give any insights into this?

Do you have any electrical functions in the door full stop?
Have you run a vcds scan to see what faults are logged ?

No electrical functions at all. I'm stripping car for parts so can't do a scan (it'll cost me). I"m just surprised that potentially removing the cable has rendered the door useless.

Only other way is to forcefully rip off door card to try and manually tinker with the licking mechanism.
