Hi guys, I need a bit of advice...

The central locking (with key, not remote) on our Bravo locks and unlocks the car fine if I use the passenger door but will only unlock the car from the drivers side - ie we can't lock the car with the key from the drivers side. Any idea what the problem could be?

(the remote locking hasn't worked for a long time and we don't have the money to fix it...)
 
most likely a fault in the door, there are seperate wires for locking and unlocking in each door so i would guess the locking wire in the driver's door is damaged or a connector is dirty/loose. take the door card off and try disconnecting then reconnecting al the connections in the door. also try doing the same with the twist lock connector between the door and the car. if all this fails you need to get a multimeter out and begin more detailed diagnostic testing- a haynes wiring diagram will be very useful.
