Default Car doors not locking.

Recently I've been experiencing problems with three of my car's doors. They're no longer staying locked. Once I lock them with my remote or key, they lock, but as soon as I pull the handle up on my front driver's side or two rear doors, they unlock the doors.

I was just wondering if anyone had any idea of what is wrong or have had this happen to them as well. Is it something to do with some relay somewhere or would it be the individual door themselves? Cheers.

Let me get this straight, you lock your doors with the remote.
Then if you try to open one of the doors from the outside they all unlock?

Do you hear the actuators lock when you press the button on your remote?
Do you hear the actuators unlock when you try to open a door?

There is one fuse (30amp) for the door locks it is in the fuse panel next to the steering column.
If this fuse is blown the doors won't lock but your car should sound the horn as if the doors weren't closed.

Its doing all of the things it would normally do, like the noises, the lock mechanism moving down on the inner driver's door and the vibration through the door as if they were locked. I haven't actually checked the fuse as I assumed it was something else that would've been wrong with it.

As soon as I'm done with work for the day, I'll check with the fuses. Cheers.

If the locks are actually working then the fuse should be fine as if it's blown the door locks will do nothing.

If you disconnect your battery can you lock the driver's door with the key?
