With the Door, try doing the lock procedure but with the handle held up (Like when you did the override to unlock). This happened on mine - pass door was opened with the "force bu key" but the driver's door had been deadlocked (eg turned to the full 90degrees and so all doors deadlocked - pins don't work).
In my case got the driver's door to unlock, unlocked all the others, but the passenger lock was "out of it". Had to re-lock with handle up, then re-deadlock (from drivers' door) whole car, then unlock from driver's door - then passenger door was back in-synch and "responding"...

Cheers.


.... THE NEXT THING IS THAT AFTER OPENINIG THE DOOR [PASSENGER SIDE] THE PUSH/PULL PIN WILL NOT GO DOWN WHEN PUSHING IT AND WILL NOT LOCK WITH THE KEY. ANY THOUGHTS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANK YOU ALL
