Hi, hope someone out there can help me :)

I've had problems with my 320i's central locking for a while now. The deadlock never worked & often, I had to lock the car from the boot because the driver's side lock would not engage the central locking. Then yesterday, the entire car just deadlocked. The lock mechanism seems to work fine - the key turns to the unlock position but nothing happens. Even the boot was deadlocked. I got locksmiths in & they managed to open the passenger door. I opened the trunk to check the battery but it is fine & the car starts ok. Now my passenger door is open but all the locks are still in the deadlock position. Any ideas??

Apologies for the long msg, hope its clear

Many thanks
