Markus,
You don't give us much information. Are all three locks stuck?, or only
one? What makes you think they are stuck? If the centre coupling is stuck
(very unlikely) then you can hear it groaning when you are on a tight turn
on tarmac. Second is to check the electrical connections to the diff lock
controls. Try jacking up the rear end and operate the lock like that, just
to make sure it is stuck in. Please leave the other two out while you do
this, and chock the front wheels both ways.
Although not so much a problem with manual boxes, have you changed the
gearbox oil?

Hi Markus
Is the diff switch on the dash pressed in, is the light on the dash on or flashing.
If so just press the switch again, drive a little and turn the steering wheel and it should disengage.
