Sounds like a driver's side door lock problem to me, not a key FOB problem.

Welcome to the forum, btw.

Try locking the doors manually and unlock with the fob. If the driver door still won't respond then u probaly got a bad accuator. Make sure u try the lock/unlock switch on the door panel.

I think it is a door lock problem, because the key fob locks everything except the drivers side(it will unlock drivers, it just wont lock it)
any suggestions for a cheaper way to get it fixed?(Lexus wants $900.00)
