My drivers door lock will enable and disable the deadlock, but won't unlock the car. It started doing this last night, and later was working fine again.

Now it is doing it again. Any ideas what it likely to be wrong?

Thanks!

Ok, so I unlocked, locked and unlocked again from the boot lock, and the drivers door lock now works fine. For now.

Any ideas?
