Driver door locks when you pull door handle

1999 Honda Civic EX

Drove my car all day and then suddenly this started happening:
  • Driver side door locks when you pull on the interior door handle.
  • Key fob stopped working.
Anyone ever experienced this or have any troubleshooting ideas?

I can open my driver's door still if I don't open the door handle all the way. If I slowly pull it back until the door unlatches then I can still open the door from inside without it locking me in. But If I just pull the door handle all the way then the door immediately lock and I have to pull up on the lock and try again. It does it with the car running and off.

Sounds like the actuator is constantly getting a lock signal. Aftermarket or factory keyless entry?
