door lock problem
I have a 2000 century. Just realized yesterday that when I lock the doors with the remote, the driver door doesn't lock. I read some posts on door locks, but am a little lost on it. Could someone post something more on what I could possibly do myself. I can see the mechanical locks moving on the other doors, but nothing happens on the driver door. I have to lock and unlock it with the key. Thanks so much.

Re: door lock problem
I would check the wires on the back of the lock switch. Just a good place to start.

Re: door lock problem
My 1996 Buick Regal Has Similar Problems. The Driver's Door Lock Switch Will Not Work, Yet The Passenger Side Will Lock All Doors Including The Driver's.
Do I Need A New Switch - It Sounds Like The Actuator Is Working Because The Passenger Side Switch Locks The Door. Shall I Replace The Switch? Thanks - Rick

Re: door lock problem
Lock problem was fixed by a locksmith. It was a job getting the door open.
It was the actuator that had burned out and froze in the locked position. Not a cheap fix of course. $130 for actuator. $100 for labor. All told $249.00

Re: door lock problem
Oh, I neglected to update my original post. After the problem with remote, the door would not open period. Key, nothing! Locked shut. That's when I got the locksmith, as my other reply mentions.
