Unable to lock the passenger door.
 
Hi All,

I'm pretty sure someone has a quick solution for this annoying problem: I can't lock the right door. When I operate the left lock with the key (keyfob never worked) the central lock does not lock neither the right door lock nor the gas cap lid. These latter two things have been working until now, although they have started being finicky recently. Now it's out completely. Central lock switch on the dash does not work either: there's a clicking sound, but no locking, something seems preventing it, but what? Thanks for any input.

I'm having the same issues with mine + the windows don't go down, my suspicion is that it's the immobilizer having corrosion and it may need to be replaced :(

I think I'm close to fix this problem and mine does not seem to be an immobilizer issue: when I hit a bump the cabin light flashes. When it remains on that's when it does not let me lock the windows, it's seeing it as still open. It must be the door open-close switch/sensor.
