Driver's Side Power Lock not working but keyless entry still works Been digging around, but cannot find someone with the same issue.
Just today the power lock toggle on my driver's side door of my 2002 Honda Civic LX (Sedan) stopped working (no sounds or clicks whatsoever). When I push the lock down manually, it does not lock the other doors like it used to. I checked the fuse for the door lock, but it seemed to be intact.
The strange thing is, my keyless entry still works. The only thing there is my horn doesn't sound on the second lock press (and the horn works still upon pushing it), and these two issues seemingly started at the same time.
Any ideas on how my power lock switch doesn't work, but yet keyless entry works (less the horn - and then, why doesn't the horn sound)?

There is a status switch in drivers side latch... almost like it does not see it is at locked state.
Lock/Unlock toggle, Neither directions works ? Or only one ?

Maybe you have an open ground (BLK) the ground is used for both the status switch and drivers door lock switch, both lead to G501 grounding point. It could be broken from flexing over time.
Got an Ohm meter handy ??

Interesting. I did see a Youtube video (that this forum pointed me to) that showed that wire issue. It's totally possible. Not having that tech expertise or an OHM meter, I may need to take it in to the dealer or mechnic.
Any idea why the keyless works or why the horn would go out on keyless? All the other people having this (or very similar) issue couldn't get their keyless to work. Unless it is all tied to the ground wire. This is more out of curiosity as I think we've ID'd the issue. Appreciate the help Craig.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one
