It may simply be a coding error if someone has goofed about with it before you got it.

Does it open okay using the remote key?

Battery could be low on the remote.
You could try recalibrating the remote. Stick the key in the door lock and open, at the same time hold in the open button on the remote ( if I remember right).

Is it just the drivers door lock not operating? But the others do ok from remote? As it could be faulty door lock module
