Default Key remote not locking drivers door...

The drivers door won't lock with the key remote, but the others do. If I sit in the car and manually push the drivers lock switch, the central locking still doesn't work... but if I lock with the key in the drivers door, all doors lock :blink:
Is this a case of the dreaded actuator motor failure? :crybaby:

^yep its that time for a new one. its a pretty easy DIY but shops shouldnt charge you more than a hr's worth of time if you need their assistance.
