98 Mondeo - drivers door lock

External Since: Dec 31, 2003 Posts: 16

Hi, hopefully someone can help: the lock on the driver's
door no longer responds to the remote key - the only
way to lock or unlock the door is by putting the key in.

The central locking seems to be fine - when attempting
to use the remote to lock, the others lock, but then unlock
because, I assume, the driver lock isn't operating. They
all lock if I use the key in the door. If I try to unlock
using the remote, all but the drivers door unlock.

Also, if I try and lock by putting the key in the passenger
side, all but the drivers door respond, and again the unlock
again.

I'm guessing maybe the lock motor is faulty - does this
sound likely, or has anyone experienced something else?
All comments suggestions welcome. Thanks

Hiya,

check the micro switch on the drivers door lock, it's probably stuck/failed
in the open position.
It's either got water in it or fallen off
