Did you connect the rods to the handle?

Suggest you take the car to an auto locksmith service. Once the door is open take off the door panel before closing it again.

I did connect the rods to the handle.
The door panel is still off the car.
The car is not street legal and i dont have a way of taking it anywhere.

Find the rod that works the door lock mechanism. Determine if the lock is stuck between on and off.

Door panel can't get removed easily so its vital to take help from an auto locksmith to remove the panel.

Call that mechanic who has done the replacement or try contacting an auto locksmith for that issue.

You should think of replacing the solenoid the issue must be there and this work can be done by locksmith at cheap.

The first step to fixing your lock is to know exactly what mechanism is causing the problem. The second step is to observe responses by your locksmith. The third step is to repeat these steps until you have found the root cause of the unlocking problem. And are satisfied that there is no repeat behavior or an apparent reason for the re-lock causing future damage to your property or person. In this situation, I decided to contact my locksmith from Utah Range Rover Key Locksmith that resolved this problem for me in 30 minutes.
