driver door won't unlock with key
my 97
ford f150 driver door won't unlock with the key. the passenger door will, so you have to unlock it with the key, hit the unlock button inside and then walk around to the driver side. what a pain!
any help would be great!
thanks

Likely the lock just needs to be lubed. I strongly suggest you buy a can of PB Blaster at the car parts store. For about $5 you locks will work great for close to a year with just a quick blast of Blaster. I've tried other lubes (lock-ease, WD-40, grapphite...) and nothing else comes close.

My rear left passenger door will not lock/unlock when the door is closed. It will lock/unlock when the door is open. I replaced the actuator already and this problem is still occurring. No other doors have this problem.
