Key Remote Help (Lock/Unlock)

It's great to be part of CL, you guy are experts and I've learned so much by reading the forum. My question or problem is, when I lock the doors with the remote all the doors lock except the front passenger side. I always have to walk around open the door and manually lock (all the others doors lock/unlock with the remote). Has anyone had this problem? Any help is appreciated. BTW, it's for a 99 Lexus GS300.

Bad door lock actuator on that particular door. Fairly common problem on the GS. Get a new one.

More than likely it is the actuator. Did you try locking it from inside to see if it locks? Or when you put it gear and all the doors lock, does that one stay unlocked?
