Default Door won't open

Is there a DIY-link for repair of a door that won't open? It's been sticky for a while, and today it just wouldn't operate, either from the inside or outside. And the key won't turn the lock.

I'm familiar with them thar innards, having disassembled & reassembled the driver-side door in the course of the paint job. But before I dive into that again, I'm curious if there's a commonly known problem and parts list.

My door lever had a hairline crack on the inside which made the lock sticky. It's an inexpensive part and a common point of failure.
