Likely to be caused by the actuators in the lock mechanism failing usually causing the door to remain locked. The boor door can also fail this way, as do the front side doors. Replacement requires the whole lock unit to be replaced at a cost of roughly £60 a lock, and a hours work. Helps if you have small hands. Requires a full strip down of the door and you will need the lock unit, trim clips (a few quid) and a trim removal tool (tenner). You can bodge with a flat head screwdriver, but the tool does help prevent damage to the clips & trim panel.

2009 kia sportage front passenger door stuck in locked position and won't budge. How do I get the door panel off to diagnose and fix?

The easiest way in is usually to hook the rod with a slim jim. If the door panel has to come off with the door closed, you will probably want to remove the passenger seat for access.

My car key goes into the lock on my driver's side door, but won't turn at all.

It meant I had to have two keys, 1 for the doors, 1 for the ignition.

Car will not lock on key fob but will unlock.but the key in the door and it locks and opens but interior light stays on says ondash board door open but theyare not

It looks like that your 'closed door' sensor is out of order or the door itself doesn't reach it far enough. put something sticky on the tip of sensor and try again.

I have a jaguar 2.5l awd - cannot lock the doors by using the key fob i have to put the key in the door and lock them manually, however the key will open them by pressing the key fob anybody got ideas ??

If the car goes "beep beep" when you try to lock the doors something is still open.
otherwise
Sounds like a defective keyfob try a new battery, try your spare if you have one.
If you don't have a spare you should get one anyway.
You can match your new keyfob to the car by following instructions here:= http://www.bluejag.co.uk/X-Type-keyfob-reprogramming.php

Tried to get into my 2008 Nissan Altima with the key and it won't unlock the door or the trunk. Called AAA and they could unlock the door manually but they couldn't open the doors. Tried opening the door...

well are you taling using a keyfob or actually inserting the key if a keyfob no battery power will cause the doors not to unlock

the actual key in the slot should work and is your back up

mostlikely you need a new battery either in your keyfob or the car

Is there any way to open passenger door ford transit van 08l locked doors and passenger door wont unlock when i tryed to open

Hello.. Not 100% sure what you mean, but if your saying that when you use the keyfob, only the drivers door unlocks, try pressing unlock twice in quick succession. This should unlock all the doors. Hope this helps.

Mini (bmw) hatch jammed

Hi eze-e, Do you have 2-stage unlocking programmed? By this I mean do you have to press the unlock button TWICE to get the passenger door unlocked? If so, the rear hatch unlocks at the same time as the passenger door - with the second press of the unlock button.
