Hello guys.
My drivers door lock central locking only unlocks both sides. When you turn the key to lock it nothing feels like it's being thrown. Is this a contact issue in the lock? All the buttons on the cab work as they should to lock and unlock But from outside the drivers door lock won't lock the passenger door as it should.
Cheers.

Switch on the back of the drivers door lock would be first thing to look at. I've replaced a few over the years.

Re: Drivers door lock problem
You can just make out the plastic tabs/clips that hold the switch together on this photo, although on this photo the tab on the right hand side is missing.
This is relevant as you can take the switch apart and clean it up inside, it will have stiff grease in there that may have bent the contacts. However the tabs are brittle and snap so make sure you warm the plastic up with a hair dryer or leave it on a hot radiator or the like and even then be very gentle.
Once cleaned out, bent back contacts, regreased assemble you can check it works by putting a meter set on ohms between the black and gree for turning one way and the black and red for turning the other.
