Okay, just started having a problem with the keyless entry on my 01 EX auto coupe. I tried searching but found nothing.

Here's the background on my problem. When I press lock or unlock on my car the parking lights flash as they normally would, but the locks do nothing.

Ocassionally I can get the passenger door to unlock, but neither will lock. If I manually lock the doors, then the horn will beep when I press the lock button twice.

If I use the electric lock switch inside the car door, the passenger side locks and unlocks, but the drivers side does neither.

Not exactly sure what the problem is, as I can tell the remote is communicating with the car just fine, but the locks are not cooperating.

Also, I tried disconnecting the battery terminal to see if a could reset the ecu, and that did not help.

Thanks, for taking the time to read this post.

When attempting does the drivers side make any noise ??
If you hold the lock **** can you feel anything ?

The drivers door has a switch that tells the system if it is locked or unlocked.

My 1st thoughts are drivers side actuator...The test is to briefly apply voltage to terminals and observe operation.

"briefly"^^
dont hold it in the open position for any length of time, its designed for a quick burst of energy to lock/unlock the door.
by holding it to long will cause it to overheat and damage the solenoid.
