Default anyone had this problem?

driver side lock crapped out. But its weird. I can use both sides door lock button to lock it but it wont unlock. Same with remote control. If I arm it, it locks but but it won't unlock. I thought it was the relay but how come it only works one way?

Any help is appreciated.

well my guess is maybe its the solenoid. they use one solenoid as one lock. it actually moves up or down. so one solenoid is used on each side and use seperate wires and reverse the process and hook it up to the same solenoid. my guess is the unlock wire is opened. it probably got cut off or something. you can actually check it using a test light if you have the time, but my best guess is a open circuit. try taking it into the dealer and letting them know. it should be an easy fix. let me know how it goes!

Thanks FairL. I did smell a puff of electrical burning one day. May be that's it, the solenoid. I only hope the dealer don't blame me for this cause i do have a Lambo doors..

I had the problem once when I was at the bank. I just clicked the buttons a few times to get it to lock/unlock and it fixed itself. Never had the problem since.
