auto-locking in door doesn't work

When I try to unlock my passenger door via my remote, or the button, the tab does not go down (or up)...

I'm just curious, before I go ripping the thing apart, what should I be looking for to fix it? Or do you guys have any tips on how to fix this?

Take the doorpanel apart and then see if you can hear them motor.. if you can, Use a digitalmultimeter to test to see if there's power going to the lock motor.. check and see if any of the metal arms are bent or if anything is obstructing them...

To go up, yes. but to lock it, one click. You can take it to honda to be fixed. Check to see if it is under warrenty before you fugg up something.
